How to Update

Download the latest source from GitHub releases.

After downloading, install dependencies and start the project:

npm install
npm run dev

If you are updating an existing customized project, compare your local changes with the latest template files and bring over the parts you need before deploying.

What’s New

Navigation and Views

• Reorganized the navigation and views to match the information architecture of the CoreUI Bootstrap admin template, so the two templates stay consistent with each other.

New Demos

• Added a Chip Set demo built on the Chip component.
• Added a Search Button demo.
• Fixed drift in ARCHITECTURE.md so the documented structure matches the project again.

Documentation

• Added a Data Grid section to the README.

Tooling

• Lint no longer walks the .demos build output, which keeps ESLint from scanning large demo bundles.

Dependency Updates

We have updated key dependencies to their latest compatible versions for CoreUI Free Vue.js Admin Template v5.6.0:

• eslint to: 10 (major version upgrade)
• pinia to: 4 (major version upgrade)
• Bumped the remaining minor and patch dependency updates.

Migration Notes

This is a maintenance release with no breaking changes announced in the published release notes. After upgrading:

1. Install updated dependencies.
2. Run your test suite and verify the build.
3. If you customized the navigation or the views, compare them with the reorganized structure before deploying.
4. Review your ESLint configuration after the major upgrade to ESLint 10.
