5. And Bug fixes
We started building new templates using T4 Framework to make sure all features are useful, easy to use and can meet developer and user's expectation. The new template development also helps us a lot in testing all the features and get the issues fixed faster.
The Test team also joined to test all features of the new framework, its compatibility with popular 3rd party extensions, performance and more. We are in the very final stage of stable release.
From very first release - Preview, we got lots of support from our users in testing the new framework, it does help us in improving the project. We hope to continue getting more supports from community.
