With any luck, many changes should be transparent to most users, in spite of how much is updated behind the scenes. More immediately visible changes include major work on the UI, including “themes” and the ability to change how sketches are named by default.
As with all releases, we did [everything possible](https://twitter.com/ben_fry/status/1426282574683516928) to avoid breaking API. However, there were still tweaks that we had to make. We tried to keep them minor. Our goal is stability, and keeping everyone's code running.
