version: 4.2.0 | ||
category: release | ||
title: Node v4.2.0 (Stable) | ||
slug: node-v4-2-0-stable | ||
layout: blog-post.hbs | ||
--- | ||
We are proud to announce the release of Node.js v4.2.0 "Argon", the first release covered under the new [Long Term Support](https://github.com/nodejs/LTS) plan! | ||
|
||
As an LTS release, support for v4.x will continue for a period of 30 months from today. This means that individuals and businesses building on Node.js will have a stable and supported platform on which to grow. For more details on what LTS means for Node.js, see Rod Vagg's [blog post](https://nodesource.com/blog/essential-steps-long-term-support-for-nodejs). | ||
|
||
### Argon? | ||
|
||
To better differentiate LTS releases from regular Node.js releases, we have introduced a simple naming convention that applies only to LTS releases. The name selected for v4.2.0 is "Argon". | ||
|
||
Developers can easily determine if they are working with an LTS version of Node.js by checking the `process.release.lts` property within node. This property will be undefined in regular releases. | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
$ node -v | ||
v4.2.0 | ||
$ node -pe process.release.lts | ||
Argon | ||
``` | ||
|
||
