As well as the code changes, such as adopting Symfony components and other third-party code, one of my favourite things about Drupal since D8 is the new release cycle.<\/p>\n\n
Instead of \"It'll be ready when it's ready.\", since Drupal 8, Drupal releases new versions on fixed dates.<\/p>\n\n
If a feature is ready by that date, it will be included.<\/p>\n\n
If not, it will be included in a later\u00a0version.<\/p>\n\n
As well as regular bug fixes and security updates, there is a new feature release every six months.<\/p>\n\n
Drupal 8.1 included features like the Layout Builder, which wasn't included in 8.0.<\/p>\n\n
In earlier Drupal versions, it would have been deferred to the next major version, making it longer before users get its benefits.<\/p>\n\n
A fixed release schedule makes it easier for users and Developers to plan their updates and prepare to upgrade to the major version.<\/p>\n\n
