Kirby 3 is Here

First of all: congratulations to Bastian Allgeier and his team. Today is the day they were working so hard for and spend so much time on. Finally the new version, which is Kirby 3 is here!

What’s New

So much is new in Kirby 3, which you can all read in detail on the fresh and new site for and about Kirby 3. But here is a list of the new and updated features:

• a completely overhauled new panel
  • sections and tabs
  • better user account management
  • a Vue.js UI kit
  • improved fields
• drafts and custom publishing workflows
• a brand new plugin system
• REST API and Headless CMS
• virtual pages and external data sources
• an asynchronous media API
• shared collections
• a new email engine to easily send emails
• better caching
• … and much more

Congrats!

I had so many conversation with Bastian over the years and I think I can say, that I know how he is feeling today. But you know what, Bastian? You made it. I hope the new version takes off as it deserves it. I myself am already looking forward to updating my websites to the latest version soon (planned for February). Thanks for your work and effort, of pushing Kirby to what it is.
