Devnet:
- continuous development for active version
- can be reset
- should be against a branch named with the version being developed (example: 10.2.3)
Nextnet:
- for parallel version development
- oftentimes, the next major version while development has bugfixes
- should be against a branch named with the version being developed (example: 10.3.1)
QAnet:
- once development is complete, each component is tagged with an rc (example: 10.2.3-rc1) and the new version to be tested is deployed on QAnet
- this net is for INTERNAL QA
- Here, we expect most bugs to be reported
- Once QA signs off, it moves to testnet
Testnet:
- tag as beta release (example: 10.2.3-rc3-beta)
- This is for the community and stability testing
- should be almost completely stable
Mainnet:
- if testnet has no blockers for 2 weeks, community votes to move to mainnet
- everything is merged to main
- final release is tagged (example: 10.2.3)
## GOAL:
moving away from that model to be able to use ephermal environments instead of maintaining such environments, but now they're available for simplicity
