V5 Release Candidate and New Features

The FullCalendar v5 release candidate has been released. If no major bugs are found in the next few days, this will be the exact code that gets shipped for the official v5. Changes since the last pre-release:

• a system for customizing CSS variables
• TypeScript definitions for the Vue connector
• many new settings/methods for managing event state and resource state
• many bugfixes
• minor breaking changes (sorry):
  • renamed datesDidUpdate to datesSet, and added more info
  • for the eventResize callback arg, renamed prevEvent to oldEvent
  • resources are ordered by ID by default. they no longer sort by natural order

See the v5-rc changelog →

See the full v5 upgrade guide →

Additionally, these example projects have been updated to include best practices:

• React example project
• React+Redux example project
• Vue example project
• Vue+TypeScript example project

Let’s cross our fingers that the release candidate goes well! I envision an official release later this week.
