[roshanpw]

Hi,

Hi @roshanpw,
Unfortunately, we can't provide a specific date at this time. We're currently focused on finalizing patch versions of Bootstrap 5 and have several features to integrate before starting on v6. So, it won't be soon, I'd say.

Any updates on the release?

[julien-deramond]

Unfortunately not, we're still working on v5.3.x and v5.x versions right now.

heads-up @roshanpw @superzackx - in case you hadn't seen - there's an early work-in-progress branch for v6 now!
#41236

I am currently migrating version 5.3.6 from @imports to @use/@forward. Currently using JetBrain IDE for sass and they have migrated to Dart Sass 1.89.2 which deprecates @import;

@richware I did it several weeks ago in our Bootstrap fork; maybe it will be helpful for you: https://github.com/coreui/coreui

and any note on what will be the main difference in 6?
moving to new compatibility level? drop some old?
hope to read bout that first, to see what new feats browser are supporting wide and i missed.

Imho, few kb more, im for keeping whats necesary, but some lower level importance maybe could go leveraged in compatibility levels - users compiling own scss may have a backward-compatibility.scss maybe, to simply comment out all related includes on one place? like all the -ms, -o, -webkit,,, prefixes. Some matter more, some less. Someone wants more compat, someone does not give a flying f*ck bout that.
