Hey folks!
We just released a beta version of Ushahidi v3.
A sneak peek into some of the things to expect from this release include:-
New features like
Searching posts by date range and multiple tags
Changing tags' icon and color, amongst others
Improved documentation
Increased test coverage of server code
Robust user authentication workflow
More visual and workflow improvements
Have a look at our release notes and blog post announcement for more details on changes in this release.
This is largely a developer release, as v3 is still not ready for production. Feel free to jump in and play around with the current version on our demo site.
One of the other major changes that’s worth mentioning, is the introduction of Phabricator into our development process. To get access, please head over to the Ushahidi Phabricator page and sign up. Once your account is approved, here’s a guide to get you started.
In the lead up to a full product launch, we plan on having regular releases every two weeks, with regular updates on what will change with each of the releases. Review our roadmap on Phabricator to keep yourself updated.
Grab the code on github, or download it here, then head over to the install instructions.
