In a lucky coincidence, the new version number of the Korp frontend is the same as its release date (if you choose to write it so). The relase mainly boasts large refactoring efforts, but let's take a look at user-facing improvements before diving into the code side of things.
A new version of the Korp frontend was released on March 24, 2025.
