In certain circumstances, our Support team might ask you to try a nightly build to see if a fix we built for you works. When running nightlies, keep the following in mind:

- Nightlies should never be used in production. While they still undergo automated testing, they don’t have the same strict QA as our full releases.

- There’s no support for migrations in any direction. Since nightlies are cut from our master branch, there’s no guarantee they’ll be compatible with the next scheduled release, nor is there any guarantee you can downgrade to the current version. Always run nightlies against a fresh database, and only use test data.

## Using nightlies

Nutrient Web SDK can be added to your project directly from our nightly using npm. The nightly version is available under the `@nutrient-sdk/viewer` package with the `nightly` tag:

For example:

```bash

# npm

npm install @nutrient-sdk/viewer@nightly

# yarn

yarn add @nutrient-sdk/viewer@nightly

```

### Document Engine

The Document Engine nightly image is provided via both Docker Hub and Amazon ECR Public Registry. To switch to it, replace the tag of the container image to `nightly`.

For Docker Hub: `pspdfkit/document-engine:nightly`

For Amazon ECR Public Registry: `public.ecr.aws/pspdfkit/document-engine:nightly`
