The Pallets team is pleased to announce that release candidates are now available for the next major version of each project.
Check out the changelogs for every project to see what's new:
Please help us prepare for the final release by testing the prerelease
versions and reporting any issues you have. To upgrade to pre-releases
with pip, use the --pre
flag, e.g.:
pip install -U --pre Flask
These new major versions all drop support for Python 2 and 3.5, requiring Python 3.6 as the minimum supported version.
These are a few highlights, see the changelogs linked above for the full release details. More detailed posts about each project's highlights will be made with the final releases.
