 # How to Upgrade DBR-JS from v10.x to v11.x
 
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> **We strongly recommend upgrading to v11.x.** All future algorithm improvements, performance optimizations, and new features will be developed exclusively for v11 and later versions. Version 10.x and earlier will only receive critical bug fixes and will not benefit from ongoing innovation.
+
+## Why Upgrade to v11?
+
+- **Latest Barcode Recognition Algorithms**: Access to cutting-edge decoding algorithms and accuracy improvements
+- **Ongoing Performance Enhancements**: Faster processing speeds and better resource optimization
+- **New Features & Capabilities**: Future functionality will only be available in v11+
+- **Active Development**: Version 11 is the actively maintained branch receiving continuous updates
+- **Long-term Support**: Ensure your application stays current with industry standards
+
+**⚠️ Version 10.x is in maintenance mode only** - no new features or algorithm updates will be backported.
+
 ## Reference the latest version of the dynamsoft-barcode-reader-bundle

 ### Upgrade your template
 
-The template system is upgraded. The template you used for the previous version can't be directly recognized by the new version. Please use the [template upgrade tool](https://www.dynamsoft.com/tools/template-upgrade/) to upgrade your template.
-
-## From version 9.x or earlier
+The template system has been enhanced in v11 to support more powerful customization options and better performance. Templates from v10.x are not directly compatible with v11.
 
-The Dynamsoft Barcode Reader JavaScript edition has been refactored to integrate with DynamsoftCaptureVision (DCV) architecture since version 10. To understand the advantages of this new architecture, please refer to these resources:
+**Action Required**: Use the [template upgrade tool](https://www.dynamsoft.com/tools/template-upgrade/) to automatically convert your v10.x templates to the v11 format.

-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> 
-> Dynamsoft's ongoing feature development is based on the new DCV architecture. By upgrading to v11, you'll gain access to improved performance and new capabilities.
-
-Due to the architectural changes, **a significant rewrite of your existing code is required**. we recommend you to follow the [User Guide](https://www.dynamsoft.com/barcode-reader/docs/web/programming/javascript/user-guide/index.html) and re-write your codes.
+> [!NOTE]
+> The upgraded template format provides better flexibility and will support future template enhancements that are exclusive to v11+.

+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> **Critical: Version 9.x and earlier are on a legacy architecture.** All new algorithm development, performance improvements, and features are built exclusively on the DynamsoftCaptureVision (DCV) architecture introduced in v10+.
+> 
+> **Staying on v9.x or earlier means:**
+> - ❌ No access to new barcode recognition algorithms
+> - ❌ No future performance optimizations
+> - ❌ Missing out on new symbology support
+> - ❌ Limited to critical security patches only

+> **Upgrading to v11 provides:**
+> - ✅ Access to all future algorithm enhancements
+> - ✅ Continuous performance improvements
+> - ✅ New features and capabilities as they're released
+> - ✅ Full technical support and active maintenance
+
+### Understanding the DCV Architecture Advantage
+
+The Dynamsoft Barcode Reader JavaScript edition has been completely refactored to integrate with the powerful DynamsoftCaptureVision (DCV) architecture. To understand the full advantages of this new architecture, please refer to:
+
+* [Overview of Dynamsoft Capture Vision](https://www.dynamsoft.com/capture-vision/docs/core/introduction/)
+* [Dynamsoft Capture Vision Framework Details](https://www.dynamsoft.com/capture-vision/docs/core/architecture/)
+
+### Migration Requirements
+
+Due to the significant architectural improvements, **a rewrite of your existing code is required** when upgrading from v9.x or earlier. While this requires initial effort, it positions your application to benefit from years of future development.
+
+**We strongly recommend following the [User Guide](https://www.dynamsoft.com/barcode-reader/docs/web/programming/javascript/user-guide/index.html) to migrate your code to v11.**
+
+> [!TIP]
+> The investment in upgrading pays off quickly through improved performance and access to ongoing innovations. Our updated APIs are more intuitive and require less boilerplate code.
