{Solidity}
Solidity is evolving rapidly
We aim for a regular (non-breaking) release every month, with approximately one breaking release per year. You can follow the implementation status of new features in the Solidity GitHub project.
Contribute to Solidity
Solidity continues to improve with help from our global community. Check out these ways to get involved and contribute to the Solidity project.
Reporting issues and vulnerabilities
To report an issue, please use the GitHub issues tracker. To report a vulnerability, please check out the instructions in the SECURITY.md.
Translating the documentation
Translations help developers from all corners of the world to be able to read the documentation and learn Solidity.
Fixing and responding to issues
Fixing and responding to issues, especially those tagged as “good first issue”, is a great way to get started for external contributors.
Contributing to language design
We welcome Solidity power users, auditors, security experts and tooling developers to get involved in the Solidity language design process. Join the Solidity forum, where existing properties of the language and proposals for new language features can be discussed.
Stay Updated
Stay always up-to-date by following the Solidity blog.
You can see the upcoming changes for the next breaking release by switching from the default branch (develop) to the breaking branch. You can actively shape Solidity by providing your input and participating in the language design in the Solidity forumand participating in the yearly Solidity developer surveys.

Solidity 0.8.35 Release Announcement
Posted by Solidity Team on April 29, 2026
We are excited to announce the release of the Solidity Compiler v0.8.35! This release introduces a new builtin, erc7201, that computes the base slot of an ERC-7201 namespaced storage layout from its namespace string. It also formalizes how experimental features are exposed to users: in-development functionality is now gated behind a new top-level --experimental flag, with a documented lifecycle and a canonical list of which features are currently considered experimental. The first major code-generation feature shipped under this new lifecycle is an experimental...

Posted by Solidity Team on April 15, 2026
The Solidity Developer Survey 2025, our sixth annual survey, collected 1,095 responses from developers across 87 countries. Thank you to everyone who participated. This post covers the key findings. For the complete data, see the interactive results page. Who responded Where do you live? 70% of respondents are smart contract developers. 12% are auditors or security experts. 18% identified as students. Half of all respondents have two years or less of Solidity experience, and 49% use Solidity daily. The top three countries are India...
Read moreTransient Storage Clearing Helper Collision Bug
Posted by Solidity Team on February 18, 2026
On 2026-02-11, a bug in the Solidity code generator was reported by Hexens. The bug affects compiler versions 0.8.28 through 0.8.33 when using the IR pipeline. When a contract clears both a persistent and a transient storage variable of the same type, the compiler will emit the wrong opcode (sstore instead of tstore, or vice versa) for one of these operations, because the generated Yul helper functions share the same name and one overwrites the other. We assign this bug a severity of...
