# Build Stacks[¶](#build-stacks "Permanent link")

In Capawesome Cloud, build stacks define a set of pre-configured software versions and tools used during the native build process. Selecting the appropriate build stack ensures compatibility with your application's dependencies and requirements.

Available Build Stacks 

Capawesome Cloud currently offers only **two build stacks** named `macos-sequoia` and `macos-tahoe`. We will be adding more build stacks in the future to support a wider range of software versions and configurations. If you have specific requirements or suggestions for additional build stacks, please [contact our support team](/contact/).

## Configurations[¶](#configurations "Permanent link")

The following table lists the software and their respective versions included in each build stack:

| Software  | macos-sequoia          | macos-tahoe          |
| --------- | ---------------------- | -------------------- |
| CocoaPods | 1.16.2                 | 1.16.2               |
| Fastlane  | 2.226.0                | 2.232.2              |
| Java      | 17, 21 (default)       | 17, 21 (default)     |
| macOS     | 15                     | 26                   |
| npm       | 11.6.1                 | 11.9.0               |
| Node.js   | 20, 22, 24 (default)   | 20, 22, 24 (default) |
| Xcode     | 16.4, 26.0.1 (default) | 26.2 (default)       |

Capawesome Cloud regularly updates the build stacks to include the latest stable versions of the software. For the most up-to-date information on the available build stacks and their configurations, please refer to this documentation or contact our support team.

Customizing Versions 

You can override the default versions for Java, Node.js, and Xcode by setting the corresponding environment variables (`JAVA_VERSION`, `NODE_VERSION`, `XCODE_VERSION`) in your build configuration. For more information, see the [Environments](/docs/cloud/native-builds/environments/#reserved-environment) documentation.
