As of February 25, 2026, the short answer is: move production to Node 24.14.0 LTS first, test Node 25.7.0 in a non-blocking lane, and treat native addons plus framework engine ranges as the main risk surface. Node 24.14.0 and 25.7.0 were both released on February 24, 2026, but 25.x is still the Current line while 24.x is LTS.
