## Releases
Some versions of SPIRV-Tools are tagged as stable releases (see
[tags](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/SPIRV-Tools/tags) on github).
These versions undergo extra testing.
Releases are not directly related to releases (or versions) of
[SPIRV-Headers][spirv-headers].
Releases of SPIRV-Tools are tested against the version of SPIRV-Headers listed
in the DEPS file.
The release generally uses the most recent compatible version of SPIRV-Headers
available at the time of release.
No version of SPIRV-Headers other than the one listed in the DEPS file is
guaranteed to work with the SPIRV-Tools release.
## Supported features
### Assembler, binary parser, and disassembler
