# .NET Core Supported OS Lifecycle Policy
.NET Core is [supported by Microsoft](microsoft-support.md) on a range of operatings systems and versions. Each platform has distinct Lifecycles defined by the parent organization. .NET Core support will take these Lifecycle schedules into account when adding or removing versions from the supported list.
.NET Core is [supported by Microsoft](microsoft-support.md) on a range of operating systems.
Each supported operating system has a lifecycle defined by its sponsor organization (for example, Microsoft, Red Hat, or Apple). The .NET Core team applies each of those lifecycle schedules to inform adding and removing support for operating system versions.
The following support documents list currently supported operating system versions for supported .NET Core versions:
* [.NET Core 3.0 supported OS versions](release-notes/3.0/3.0-supported-os.md)
* [.NET Core 2.2 supported OS versions](release-notes/2.2/2.2-supported-os.md)
* [.NET Core 2.1 supported OS versions](release-notes/2.1/2.1-supported-os.md)
* [.NET Core 1.x supported OS versions](release-notes/1.0/1.0-supported-os.md)
## Support for new OS versions
## Out-of-Support .NET Core versions
When an OS which is part of the .NET Core supported set releases an update, support for that version will generally be available with the next update to .NET Core. For example Fedora 28 is available and will be supported by .NET Core 2.1. Fedora 29 is scheduled to release in the fall of 2018 and will be supported by a subsequent update of .NET Core.
When an operating system version goes out of support, we stop testing that version and providing support for that version. This means that users will need to move forward to a supported operating system version to get support. Previously released packages will remain available for users needing access.
'Support' means that .NET Core is built and tested on the OS and Microsoft Developer Support may be contacted for assistance with .NET Core on the environment.
The following support documents list historical operating system support for out-of-support .NET Core versions:
## OS version end of life
* [.NET Core 2.0 supported OS versions](release-notes/2.0/2.0-supported-os.md)
When an OS version reaches end-of-life as defined by the OS owner, .NET Core will also cease to provide support for that OS version. Previously released packages will remain available for customers needing access but formal support and updates of any kind will no longer be provided.
## Change Process
Operating system versions are added and go out of support on a regular basis. We record these changes in two places:
* The support documents listed above
* [Monthly Update Announcements](https://github.com/dotnet/announcements/labels/Monthly-Update)
When a new operating system version is made available, we will typically support it on a subset of supported .NET Core versions, potentially only with the latest .NET Core version.
