Finally, the long awaited release is here!
Today the newest major update of Maicolo07 Account is finally live after one year (and one month) of development!
Let’s deep inside this update!
Release notes
New features
🎨 New UI
This new update brings the updated look of Material Design in two different themes/color schemes: black and white. You can now switch themes and use the one you prefer! Don’t worry, the new Material You will come in the future when web components are released 😁
New backend
The internal structure of Maicol07 Account has been deeply changed. Now is powered by Laravel 8, which surely helps improving performances and making development a little better. Surely better than before… This interests all the feature, from authentication to views rendering.
🔒ï¸ New SSO mechanism
Previously, SSO was handled automatically by JWTs, exchanged from services to the auth system. Now we implement the OpenID Connect standard in order to provide a smoother, faster and more secure experience for everyone! The major change here is that now you can choose what data the service should get from your account. Keep in mind that if that data is required from the service, it won’t work correctly!
