+# Firmware versions and types
+
+
+## Versions
+Versions follow [symantic versioning](https://semver.org/). The update mechanism always tries to update to the latest compatible version.
+
+## Types
+rESCue firmware does support different hardware setups, therefore different types of the firmware exist.
+
+### regular
+The regular type uses CANBUS and supports addressable LEDs (e.g. Neopixel or other WS28.. based)
+
+### cob
+The COB type supports COB-LED-modules by driving one or two external MOSFET by PWM.
+
+### uart
+The UART type uses UART instead of CANBUS to "talk" to the VESC.
+
+### cob_uart
+The cob_uart type supports COB-LED-modules by driving one or two external MOSFET by PWM and uses UART for communication with the VESC.
