Joomla 5.0 Alpha 2 - Nuwe idees by Joomla 5 gevoeg!

Die Joomla-projek kondig graag die beskikbaarheid van Joomla 5.0 Alpha 2 aan vir toetsing.

Die eerste in die 5.x-reeks van Joomla! Neem alles wat goed is in Joomla 4.x en neem dit na die volgende vlak. Maak Joomla vinnig, toeganklik, veilig, uitbreidbaar en joune

Waarvoor is hierdie vrystelling?

Daar is twee hoofdoelwitte vir Alpha-vrystellings:

Voorsien ontwikkelaars van die basis om hul uitbreidings te toets en rapporteer enige probleme lank voor die finale vrystelling
Laat gebruikers toe om die nuwe kenmerke wat aan Joomla 5.0 bekendgestel is, te ontdek

Vir 'n volledige lys van bekende terugwaartse versoenbaarheidskwessies vir weergawe 5.0, sien asseblief Potensiële terugwaartse versoenbaarheidskwessies in Joomla 5 op die dokumentasiewebwerf.

Waarvoor is hierdie vrystelling NIE?

Hierdie alfa-weergawe van Joomla 5.0 is nie geskik vir produksieterreine nie. Dit is slegs vir toetsing.

Waar om dit te kry?

Laai Joomla 5.0.0 Alpha 2 af

Om altyd die nuutste bou van Joomla 5 te gebruik, nooi ons jou uit om die nagtelike boupakkette te gebruik (elke aand opgedateer).

What are the plans for Joomla 5.0?

Currently, we’re at the start of the journey of Joomla! 5.0. With Joomla! 5.0 as a new major version we plan to create a cleaned-up foundation for the future of Joomla!. There are several projects which, with your help, could become part of Joomla! 5.0, if they are release-ready by Joomla 5.0 Beta:

Update the system requirements to PHP 8.1 & MySQL 8.0.13+, MariaDB 10.4+ and PostgreSQL 12+
Bootstrap 5.3
Codemirror 6
B/C plugin for deprecations - #40664
Joomla! Cookie Manager - Project Repository
Different SEO improvements - Project Repository
Heavily code cleanups - Check PRs
(optional) Several Rector rules to support 3rd party developers (Hierdie e-posadres word teen spambots beskerm. Jy benodig JavaScript geaktiveer om dit te bekyk.)

How can you help Joomla 5.0 to develop?

To help ensure the 5.0 release and our major features are “production-ready”, we need your help testing releases and reporting any bugs you may find at issues.joomla.org.

Most of all, we encourage extension developers to roll up their sleeves, seek out bugs and test their extensions with Joomla 5.0 and communicate their experience.

Where can I find documentation about Joomla 5?

There are some tutorials to help you with Joomla 4. You can find the existing ones, like creating a Plugin or a Module for Joomla 4, namespaces conventions, prepared statements, using the new web asset classes and many more in https://docs.joomla.org/Category:Joomla!_5.x

We encourage developers to help write the documentation about Joomla 5 on docs.joomla.org to help and guide users and other extension developers.

A JDocs page will help developers to see the existing documentation, and the documentation still needed.

We invite you to check it regularly, update it and provide the missing content: https://docs.joomla.org/JDOC:Joomla_4_Tutorials_Project

Most of the feature documentation will be needed once we have reached Beta (feature freeze).
