Apps - the most important feature in 6.0

Apps are complete packages of data-definitions, views, data and files (like scripts, images). read more about Apps

very easy to create and install & also easy to remove again without leaving traces - just like iPhone Apps!
they are automatically created & packed into a ZIP from the source system
with an online app-catalog
since these Apps are all built with simple technologies, they are easy to adapt after installing
Apps are multilingual by default and all data is automatically versioned (allows restore)
Apps have their own "Getting Started" page
Apps have central settings and resources (for multilingual views and stuff) which can also be used in tokens
Perfect for integrating existing other technologies like the Google Tag Manager or others
Perfect for demonstrating features & functionality like the new data-access API

The following improvements are features that were enhanced just to make them better, or to improve the way they are used in Apps.

Improved data access with typed data sources - the list is found here. Try our App with the data demos to discover this
Configuration Injection in the data sources: use parameters like [QueryString:AppId] and the data-source will automatically retrieve the settings from the environment
New ways to create custom edit-menus and client side JS-API for this
New ways to Pre-Fill data into new entities (like titles, assigned pages, etc.)
completely delete entities is now finally possible
Razor-templates can call up sub-templates with RenderPage, and all important objects (Content, List, ...) work automatically
import/export of lists (new feature being tested, but still hidden)
Toolbar can now be used as @Content.Toolbar and doesn't require @Html.Raw(...) any more

Changed requirement to: DNN 7.2 (the first stable release of DNN 7 with functioning URLs) and also uses the new WebPages (Razor 2.0)

Now requires Razor 2.0 as the minimum engine (that's why we went for DNN 7 as the minimum)
Missing data (for example non-existing attributes) now return null instead of the text stored in the Content.Configuration.ErrorKeyMissing
Breaking: the Content.Configuration.ErrorKeyMissing was removed
Sub-Collections can now be easily iterated thanks to the the != null and foreach(x in Content.Products) syntax
