What's New in Serendipity 2.0

Our main goal for Serendipity 2.0 was to clean up our backend structure, both in terms of coding and especially in terms of design and usability. We firmly believe to now be at a point where we want to show off our hard endeavours, and feel Serendipity 2.0 can now be properly used.

Highlights

New Responsive theme, usable for desktop, tablet and mobile devices.
A new frontpage (aka "Dashboard") shows you the most notable things on your blog
A redone navigation tries to structure the backend tasks in a better way
"Themes" is now the definitive word, where we previously used "Template", "Style" or "Theme". We're committed to stick with this now. ;-)
The bundled WYSIWYG editor has been changed to CKEditor.
A conservative but thorough rework of the Media Library.
Restructured core and removed some older cruft.
New Metatron tool which can perform a number of administrative tasks on the command line.
