,We are thrilled to announce the first release candidate of 8.0.0 after the last beta release. Again, we want to remind you that this is not for production use. There is no guarantee that 8.0.0-rc1 will be compatible with other preview releases or with 8.0.0 general availability (GA).

When you open an issue, mention that you found the bug in 8.0.0-rc1, and we’ll add a “Pioneer Program” label. If you have questions about preparing for your upgrade to 8.0, visit our forums or community Slack channel, and we’d be happy to help!Try it out And now, without further ado, we bring to you 8.0.0-rc1.
