# ML.NET 0.11 Release Notes

[ML.NET](https://aka.ms/mlnet) 0.11 will be the last preview release before we reach `Release Candidate` for v1. We continue to push for creating a coherent and clean API surface for [ML.NET](https://aka.ms/mlnet) users. This release includes several bug fixes as well as extensive work on reducing the public API surface. The work on the API is tracked via [this project](https://github.com/dotnet/machinelearning/projects/13). In the upcoming 0.12 (RC1) releases before we reach 1.0, we will continue on refining the API and improving documentation.

### Installation

ML.NET supports Windows, MacOS, and Linux. See [supported OS versions of .NET Core 2.0](https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/master/release-notes/2.0/2.0-supported-os.md) for more details.

You can install ML.NET NuGet from the CLI using:
```
dotnet add package Microsoft.ML
```

From package manager:
```
Install-Package Microsoft.ML
```

### Release Notes

Below are a few of the highlights from this release. There are many other improvements in the API.
