This is great news for the project and the whole community around it. We’ve just published the 1.0 Release Candidate!

In this release

Our primary goal with 1.0RC was to make it much easier to build new extensions and themes. We also aimed at making the product as reliable as we could. Our works were focused on refactoring, extensibility and documentation.

Key new features:

  • Magento shopping cart promo rules support,
  • Click&Collect shipping,
  • New extensions and themes structure, separated app. core,
  • Documentation and refactoring,
  • Please check the Release Notes for the details.

Although Vue Storefront is production ready from last two editions, with 1.x line we will do our best to not introduce any breaking changes to keep the production projects updatable and maintainable.
