Backwards Compatibility¶
QuantWorks was forked from PyAlgoTrade v0.20, the first release of QuantWorks being v0.21.
Backwards compatibility is not guaranteed as the public API changes until the v1.0 release.
If you feel strongly about keeping backwards compatibility in one or more specific modules, please open an issue to discuss.
