The AWE framework team is pleased to announce that starting with version 4.7.1, AWE will use the Spring Boot 3 and Spring 6 version as a base image. In this way, we will be prepared for new functionalities, greater security and of course, better maintenance.

This version requires us to use Java 17, so you have to take this into account if you want to use the new version of AWE.

To see more information about the new features of Spring Boot 3, you can see it on this link.

Next, we leave you the migration guide for AWE applications that use the new version of Spring Boot 3.

We have added a new security function to our framework: Two-factor authentication.

This development adds the possibility to enable an extra authentication factor based on apps like Google Authenticator to enter the application. We have also added the possibility to force all the users to activate this second factor to improve access security.

AWE Framework now has a new module: Notification module.

This module allows very easily to create new topics and publish notifications over them.

We also have developed a new settings screen to allow the user to subscribe to topics which he or she prefers via notification or email.

We will publish AWE framework news as well as tutorials and other interesting things related to web application development.
