We’ve just rolled out Ushahidi v3.0.0.0-beta.20, with more new features and improvements following our last release.
Take it out for a spin on our demo site, but keep in mind that this is not ready for production, but we continue to get closer.

What’s changed?
- We now have a cleaner configuration for developer environments using a .env file
- Fast client development builds
- We’ve made some minor fixes to data providers and posts APIs
What’s New?

Coming up next?
- Create, edit and view saved searches and collections of posts
