The most visible improvements are already mentioned, but what do you think about:

  • The new Document Template DSL for exporting your data as Word, PDF, HTML, Open Office, etc.
  • The new Microflow Debugger, much more visual.
  • Autonomous modules, which enables App Store sharing.
  • Support of right-to-left languages for our Arabic friends.
  • Anonymous users, i.e. build public websites.
  • Conditional formatting of almost all elements on a form based on security.
  • Find unused items in the Modeler.
  • View the dependencies between modules in the Modeler.

Just to name a few additional improvements ;)

I love the Search function, really helps you navigate big projects when you know what you are looking for but don't know what folder/module it is in!
