What's new in Klaw 2.8.0​

Redesigned screens with React UI​

In this release, we have redesigned the user interface using React to enhance the user experience and provide a more intuitive design.

Key updates in the new React UI include:

  • Topic catalog - Filter by Topic type image
  • Activity log image
  • Dashboard landing page image
  • View clusters image
  • View environments image

To disable the preview for the new Klaw user interface, open the application.properties file on the Klaw core module, and set the value of the following property to false (Effective from version 2.4.0, it is true by default):

    #Enable new Klaw user interface
klaw.coral.enabled=false
note

We are taking an incremental, feedback-driven approach in rolling out the new Klaw interfaces. By providing the feature flag to preview the user interfaces, we would like you to share your valuable feedback.

Feedback form to help gather community feedback for Klaw​

Available in the angular view, a new feedback form is now available to have your thoughts and feedback better included in the planning and future trajectory of Klaw

New Klaw documentation site structure implemented​

The documentation website has an updated navigation to improve usability.
