Release history

Site Designer is tracked by build number, not by a marketing version number. Each build is a release in its own right, and the build number is what identifies it — in the app, in the installer file name, and in every change log entry.

Recent releases

Newest first. Every date, build number and highlight below comes from CoffeeCup’s official change log thread.
