Tiki 29.0 will be released in September 2025. Normally scheduled for June 2025, but since previous release was in January 2025 (instead of target 2024-10), this is a quite tight cycle (5 months instead of 8).
It is a Standard Term Support (STS) version and will be supported until ((Tiki30|Tiki 30.1)) is released as per ((tw:Versions|the Tiki lifecycle policy))

!! Node.js Requirement for Tiki Wiki 29 (for developers)
If you install from Git (which developers do)
Tiki Wiki uses Node.js® to build and manage its frontend assets (JavaScript, CSS, npm packages, etc.). For Tiki Wiki 29, the system requires an up-to-date version of Node.js to ensure compatibility, stability, and security.
For Tiki Wiki 29, you must install:
Node.js® v20.19.5 (LTS)
!! Work that is unlikely to get done in this version but should be done eventually
* Improve internal stats and reporting system, so as to no longer rely on external systems like ((doc:Matomo)) for the common use cases. Marc.
* Attempt to support Widows and Orphans via ((Widows and Orphans in mPDF|mPDF)) or via a ((Browser Automation|headless browser)) with something like https://github.com/bramstein/typeset (Marc)
* ((Notifications Revamp)) (finish the job) (Victor + Marc)
* ((File Gallery Revamp)) for the front-end (elFinder, etc.): Marc + Jonny
