In the first days of December, the great news makes our hearts feel warm! We are happy to meet the sparkling fresh release — and show all our readers what’s new in Drupal 8.8.

It is, in fact, the last minor release of Drupal 8. The next one, 8.9, will come out on the same day with Drupal 9 — June 3, 2020. All D8 sites that are regularly updated and free from deprecated code will be instantly ready for Drupal 9.
