# Obtaining Development Builds

The latest bug fixes and features are initially published in the so-called development channel.

The development builds are used to validate recent implementations and collect early feedback.

> Development builds are unstable and will often be broken. They might ship with major bugs and regressions.

## Scenarios

* To obtain the latest development release once, use the `dev` [dist-tag](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/dist-tag) during `npm install`.

  ```sh
  npm i @progress/kendo-react-buttons@dev
  ```

* To obtain the latest development release every time, specify `dev` as a package version in `package.json` and run `npm update`.

  ```json
  "dependencies": {
      "@progress/kendo-react-buttons": "dev",
      ...
  }
  ```

* To revert to the stable channel, install the package without a tag specifier.

  ```sh
  npm i @progress/kendo-react-buttons
  ```
