-| We are currently working hard on porting Smartstore from classic ASP.NET MVC to ASP.NET Core 5. For best code quality we decided to port class by class and adapt the existing code to the new environment. Therefore we have created a **[new repository](https://github.com/smartstore/Smartstore)** where we do all the work. Of course, work in this repository continues as usual. **Give our new repository a star** to stay up-to-date, get involved or just watch how we're doing. Learn all about the latest development, participate actively and last but not least, don't miss the day of release. |
+| We are thrilled to announce that we've published the first release of Smartstore 5, one of the fastest full-featured e-commerce solutions of the world. Smartstore 5 is a port of Smartstore 4 - which is based on the classic .NET Framework 4.7.2 – to the new ASP.NET Core 6 platform. To try it out head over to our **[new repository](https://github.com/smartstore/Smartstore)** and download the first release. **Give our new repository a star** to stay up-to-date, get involved or just watch how we're doing. Learn all about the latest development, participate actively and last but not least, don't miss the day of the first stable release.|
