EffVer: Version your code by the effort required to upgrade

Read Original

The article proposes EffVer (Intended Effort Versioning), a new software versioning scheme. It critiques SemVer and CalVer, arguing EffVer better communicates the expected user effort for upgrading—categorizing changes as Micro (no effort), Meso (small effort), or Macro (significant effort)—to show respect for users' time and set clearer expectations.
