Summary

The upcoming update for Bitrise's Linux stacks will bring Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish as the default version, which is the latest LTS release with an End of Standard Support date in June 2027. This update aims to enhance efficiency, security, and user experience by introducing changes such as JDK 17 as the default Java version, Android NDK upgrade, preinstalled emulator system images, and updated tooling for React Native, Node.js, Kotlin CLI, Flutter, and more. The update also marks the deprecation of Ubuntu 20.04 Focal Fossa in April 2025, with all apps building on this stack being migrated to the new Ubuntu 22.04 stack by October 2024. Users are advised to test, adapt, and be prepared for these changes.
