As often with most libraries/frameworks, the best place to find this answer is the project webpage : http://projects.spring.io/spring-framework/

You will find on the right the latest versions stable and not stable (SNAPSHOT). At the moment of writing this answer, 4.3.11 is the latest stable release of v4.X.X.

FYI, Spring 5 has been released a few days ago.

Another way to find latest dependencies, that will work for most OSS project is to look at Maven central repository

  • Brilliant. Thanks Matt. Also, considering we are upgrading from version 3.0.5 to say 4.3.11. Would that be a simple case of just updating the libraries or, do you think there may be other dependencies which we need to look at. – user2967948 Oct 10 '17 at 10:42
  • It should be ok, but you'll probably have to adapt some config. Spring provides a guide for migration : https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/wiki/Migrating-to-Spring-Framework-4.x – Matt Oct 11 '17 at 07:21
