## Which version

| Version                                          | Frameworks             | Status                                                  |
| ------------------------------------------------ | ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- |
| [**Vidyano v7**](/vidyano/v7/v7.md)              | .NET 10 (LTS), .NET 11 | Release candidate. Ships with .NET 11 in November 2026. |
| [**Vidyano v6**](/vidyano/v6/getting-started.md) | .NET 8.0, .NET 9.0     | Current stable.                                         |
| [Legacy v5.x](/vidyano/legacy-v5.x.md)           | .NET Framework         | Maintenance only.                                       |

The v7 section documents what is **new or changed** in that release — [AI and MCP](/vidyano/v7/documentation/ai.md), the [OAuth 2.1 authorization server](/vidyano/v7/security/authorization-server.md), [consent](/vidyano/v7/security/consent.md), [passkeys](/vidyano/v7/security/passkeys.md) and [async actions](/vidyano/v7/documentation/async-actions.md). Everything else is identical to v6, so the v6 pages remain the reference for the rest of the framework.

## Getting started Section

For developers ready to dive in, the Getting Started section provides the necessary steps to install tools and create a new project with Vidyano: [v7](/vidyano/v7/getting-started.md) or [v6](/vidyano/v6/getting-started.md).

## Documentation Sections

The [documentation](/vidyano/v6/documentation.md) provides insights into the various concepts within a Vidyano project. It details their functionalities and guides on how to effectively utilize them in your applications. Developers can leverage this knowledge to enhance their projects and maximize the platform's potential.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://2sky.gitbook.io/vidyano/readme.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
