Drupal 8.0.0-rc1 released

October 8, 2015

Coming right on the heels of DrupalCon Barcelona, Drupal 8 release candidate 1 is here!

Drupal 8 comes with many improvements and features, including:

  • Object-oriented backend leveraging Symfony components
  • Built-in configuration management (the Features module)
  • The Views module is now part of Drupal core
  • Theming is much improved now with Twig and MVC separation of logic from design.
  • Multilingual support was given much more attention in this release.

We are already running Drupal 8 on several small client sites and are excited to start adopting it more widely in the near future.
