## Compatibility

### Parse Server

Parse JS SDK is compatible with the following versions of Parse Server.

| Parse JS SDK     | Parse Server     |
|------------------|------------------|
| >= 4.0.0 < 5.0.0 | >= 6.0.0 < 7.0.0 |
| >= 5.0.0         | >= 7.0.0         |

### Node.js

Parse JS SDK is continuously tested with the most recent releases of Node.js to ensure compatibility. We follow the [Node.js Long Term Support plan](https://github.com/nodejs/Release) and only test against versions that are officially supported and have not reached their end-of-life date.

| Version    | Latest Version | End-of-Life | Compatible |
|------------|----------------|-------------|------------|
| Node.js 18 | 18.20.3        | April 2025  | ✅ Yes      |
| Node.js 20 | 20.15.0        | April 2026  | ✅ Yes      |
| Node.js 22 | 22.4.0         | April 2027  | ✅ Yes      |

## Getting Started

The easiest way to integrate the Parse SDK into your JavaScript project is through the [npm module](https://npmjs.org/parse).
However, if you want to use a pre-compiled file, you can fetch it from [unpkg](https://unpkg.com). The development version is available at [https://unpkg.com/parse/dist/parse.js](https://unpkg.com/parse/dist/parse.js), and the minified production version is at [https://unpkg.com/parse/dist/parse.min.js](https://unpkg.com/parse/dist/parse.min.js).

### Using Parse on Different Platforms

The JavaScript ecosystem is wide and incorporates a large number of platforms and execution environments. To handle this, the Parse npm module contains special versions of the SDK tailored to use in Node.js and [React Native](https://facebook.github.io/react-native/) environments. Not all features make sense in all environments, so using the appropriate package will ensure that items like local storage, user sessions, and HTTP requests use appropriate dependencies. For server side rendered applications, you may set the `SERVER_RENDERING` variable to prevent warnings at runtime.

To use the npm modules for a browser based application, include it as you normally would:

```js
const Parse = require('parse');
// ES6 Minimized
import Parse from 'parse/dist/parse.min.js';
```

For web worker or browser applications, indexedDB storage is available:

```js
Parse.CoreManager.setStorageController(Parse.IndexedDB);
```

For server-side applications or Node.js command line tools, include `'parse/node'`:

```js
// In a node.js environment
const Parse = require('parse/node');
```

For React Native applications, include `'parse/react-native.js'`:
```js
// In a React Native application
const Parse = require('parse/react-native.js');

// On React Native >= 0.50 and Parse >= 1.11.0, set the Async
const AsyncStorage = require('@react-native-async-storage/async-storage');
Parse.setAsyncStorage(AsyncStorage);
```

For WeChat miniprogram, include `'parse/weapp'`:
```js
// In a WeChat miniprogram
const Parse = require('parse/weapp');
```
If you want to use a pre-compiled file, you can fetch it from [unpkg](https://unpkg.com). The development version is available at [https://unpkg.com/parse/dist/parse.weapp.js](https://unpkg.com/parse/dist/parse.weapp.js), and the minified production version is at [https://unpkg.com/parse/dist/parse.weapp.min.js](https://unpkg.com/parse/dist/parse.weapp.min.js).

For TypeScript applications, install `'@types/parse'`:
```
$ npm install @types/parse
```

Types are updated manually after every release. If a definition doesn't exist, please submit a pull request to [@types/parse][types-parse]

#### Core Manager

The SDK has a [Core Manager](src/CoreManager.ts) that handles all configurations and controllers. These modules can be swapped out for customization before you initialize the SDK. For full list of all available modules take a look at the [Core Manager Documentation](src/CoreManager.ts).

```js
// Configuration example
Parse.CoreManager.set('REQUEST_ATTEMPT_LIMIT', 1)

// Controller example
Parse.CoreManager.setRESTController(MyRESTController);
```

## 3rd Party Authentications

Parse Server supports many [3rd Party Authenications][3rd-party-auth]. It is possible to [linkWith][link-with] any 3rd Party Authentication by creating a [custom authentication module][custom-auth-module].

### Experimenting

You can also use your own forks, and work in progress branches by specifying them:

```
npm install github:myUsername/Parse-SDK-JS#my-awesome-feature
```

And don't forget, if you plan to deploy it remotely, you should run `npm install` with the `--save` option.
