## Upgrading HedgeDoc
HedgeDoc follows [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/).
This means that minor and patch releases should not introduce user-facing backwards-incompatible changes.
You can find more details about upgrading in the instructions of your installation method.
!!! warning
Before you upgrade, **always read the release notes**.
You can find them on our [releases page](https://hedgedoc.org/releases/).
## Migrating from CodiMD & HackMD
Migrating from CodiMD <= 1.6.0 or HackMD <= 1.1.0 to HedgeDoc should be safe,
just make sure to read the release notes.
A particular issue that has come up is when handling TLS connections using a reverse proxy.
You must [set the `X-Forwarded-Proto` header correctly](https://docs.hedgedoc.org/guides/reverse-proxy/#reverse-proxy-config).
Migrating from more recent versions of CodiMD is not guaranteed to work, although some community members
[reported success migrating from CodiMD 2.2](https://community.hedgedoc.org/t/solved-upgrade-from-dockerlized-codimd/271).
If you successfully migrated from other versions, please report your upgrade results in the [community forum](https://community.hedgedoc.org/).
