CakePHP 3.7 RC1 released

The team is very excited about the latest RC1 release - 3.7.0 contains several new features, including

Improved binary column reflection for SqlServer.
Session handlers are no longer changed if the session is active.
Tests are passing against PHP 7.3

CakePHP 3.7 will be the last minor release for 3.x before 4.0 is released - from then 3.x will continue to receive only bug and security fixes while 2.x will continue to only receive security fixes.
Read more about the release on the bakery - and feel free to reach out to the team if you have any questions or feedback!

Until next time!
