Laravel 5.3 RC1 is now released

Laravel 5.3 has been under heavy development and we’ve all been waiting for the release with great anticipation. The first release candidate is now released and available for everyone to start testing.

You can grab the latest in a project by running:

laravel new demo-site --dev

The documentation is also completely updated for this version and the official release date is scheduled for next week at Laracon EU.

As with all early releases keep in mind that things can change, break, and nothing is guaranteed.
