Vue Storefront v1.0 Release Candidate 3 has just arrived!

This release is a stable step towards 1.0 stable - which is planned for the 1st of June. We've included some pretty cool new features along with major (but probably in most cases transparent) refactoring efforts.

Please read the UPGRADE NOTES before pulling out the latest changes

The performance upgrade is one of the key new features of this release. We went down with the average server responses from 0.3s to 0.1s by reducing the size and number of JSON requests (mostly). There is new mechanism called "two-stage caching" responsible for progressive data loading for shortest possible times to first interaction for the users. We've refactored the Product and Category core code to make it easier to extend for the extension developers.

Starting this release we have added the magento1-vsbridge-extended with the full support for Shopping carts, User accounts, Shopping rules ... for Magento 1.9. If you're interested please ask the team for more info on http://vuestorefront.io. Making the Magento1 a first-class-citizen for Vue Storefront!

Our contributors upgraded the User Experience in few key areas of the application and added some new features like an infinite scroll on the category page and support for media galleries on the product page.

Thanks to our Vibrant Community we've got the Russian, Japanese and Italian language support
