## Supported Kubernetes Versions

The project aims to keep the current minor release compatible with the actively supported Kubernetes minor releases, i.e.,
The project aims to keep the current minor release compatible with the actively supported Kubernetes minor releases, i.e.,
the current release (N), N-1, and N-2. Where possible we will go above and beyond this trying to help our users support
both newer and older versions of Kubernetes:

- For a given Cluster API minor release, we give best-effort support for future Kubernetes versions that are released
during the release's active support period. Depending on the changes made in Kubernetes, users may be required to
update to the next patch release of Cluster API to maintain compatibility.

- In some cases where support for future Kubernetes versions can't be added, or is considered not practical or too risky
adding it, the Kubernetes version support matrix for an existing Cluster API minor release will stop at the last supported version.
- Cluster API offers best-effort support for older Kubernetes versions where possible.
Important! this is not a replacement/alternative for upstream Kubernetes support policies!
Support for older version of Kubernetes is limited to "Cluster API can start a Cluster with this Kubernetes version"
and "Cluster API can upgrade to the next Kubernetes version"; it does not include any extended support to Kubernetes itself.

Whenever a new Cluster API release is cut, we will document the Kubernetes version compatibility matrix the release
has been tested with. Summaries of Kubernetes versions supported by each component are additionally maintained in
the [tables](#release-components) below.

On a final comment, let's praise all the contributors keeping care of such a wide support matrix.

If someone is looking for opportunities to help with the project, this is definitely an area where additional hands
and eyes will be more than welcome and greatly beneficial to the entire community.

\* There is an issue with CRDs in Kubernetes v1.23.{0-2}. ClusterClass with patches is affected by that (for more details please see [this issue](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/issues/5990)). Therefore we recommend to use Kubernetes v1.23.3+ with ClusterClass.
Previous Kubernetes **minor** versions are not affected.
