Under the headline “Warp Speed”, the TYPO3 Community has released a new Long Term Support (LTS) version of the TYPO3 Content Management System. The professional PHP-based web publishing platform will be supported for a full six years.

TYPO3 v11 LTS is out! Many enhancements, new features, and modern technologies under the hood make this version our best TYPO3 release yet. We have hardly neglected an area to lift this enterprise CMS to a new level. TYPO3 version 11 is for everyone and we can proudly claim that this release is built to stay. As a long-term support release (LTS), this version will be maintained by the community for at least three years.
