Products Tagging

You can now tag Products additionally to just using Taxons. Tagging module uses acts-as-taggable-on gem. You can easily fetch a list of Products associated to any given tag(s) which should be very helpful for creating new dynamic products listings.

Extended Google Analytics Enhanced Ecommerce integration

Spree now passes more meaningful information into Google Analytics when adding Products to Cart like:

• product brand name
• variant description

New Spree open source branding

We've changed logo for default customer frontend and Admin Panel to differentiate
Spree Open Source project from Spree Commerce (company).

Lighter and more user-friendly Admin Panel

We've removed a lot of unused, deprecated, outdated code and assets from the Admin Panel,
overall reducing the codebase by a lot. We've also fixed a huge amount of UX issues
like missing validation, bad navigation or lack of thereof and so on.

Semantic versioning for future Extensions

We're changing how extensions dependencies work. Previously you had to match
extension branch to Spree branch. Starting from now master branch of all
generated extensions will work with Spree >= 3.1 and < 4.0. Thanks to
that we're dropping versioning of extensions same as Spree and using
standard Semantic versioning.

More developer-friendly Extension generator

Extension template used by the generator includes now Travis CI config with
settings to test extension against Spree 3.1, 3.2 & 3.3 (edge), PostgreSQL,
MySQL, Ruby 2.2 & 2.3 thanks to Appraisals gem
by thoughtbot.
