10 Reasons to Upgrade to .NET 10

.NET 10 and C# 14 were released on November 11, 2025.

Today, I want to show 10 reasons why you should consider upgrading your projects to .NET 10.

1. Long-Term Support (LTS) Release

Here is a lifecycle for the currently supported .NET versions:

.NET 10

  • Release date: November 11, 2025
  • Release type: LTS
  • End of support: November 14, 2028

.NET 9

  • Release date: November 12, 2024
  • Release type: STS
  • End of support: November 10, 2026

.NET 8

  • Release date: November 14, 2023
  • Release type: LTS
  • End of support: November 10, 2026

As a Long-Term Support (LTS) release, .NET 10 will receive three years of support until November 14, 2028.
This makes it a solid choice for production applications that need long-term stability.

Support for .NET 8 ends on November 10, 2026, so you should consider upgrading to .NET 10 as soon as possible.
