## Date Serialization
+#### Customizing The Default Date Format
+
+You may customize the default serialization format by overriding the `serializeDate` method:
+
+ /**
+ * Prepare a date for array / JSON serialization.
+ *
+ * @param \DateTimeInterface $date
+ * @return string
+ */
+ protected function serializeDate(DateTimeInterface $date)
+ {

#### Customizing The Date Format Per Attribute
You may customize the serialization format of individual Eloquent date attributes by specifying the date format in the [cast declaration](/docs/{{version}}/eloquent-mutators#attribute-casting):

-### WIP
+### Symfony 5 Required
+
+**Likelihood Of Impact: Medium**
+
+Laravel 7 adds support for Symfony 5 which is now also the new minimum compatible version.
+
+### PHP 7.2.5 Required
+
+**Likelihood Of Impact: Low**
+
+The new minimum PHP version (which mimics Symfony 5.0) is now 7.2.5.
+
+
+### Updating Dependencies
+
+Update your `laravel/framework` dependency to `^7.0` in your `composer.json` file.
+
+Next, examine any 3rd party packages consumed by your application and verify you are using the proper version for Laravel 7 support.
+
+### Eloquent
+
+
+#### Date Serialization
+
+**Likelihood Of Impact: High**
+
+Laravel 7 comes with a new default for serializing dates when using the `toArray` or `toJson` method on Eloquent models. It makes use of the default Carbon `toJSON` behavior and will provide a datetime string with fractions and timezone info.
+
+The previous behavior would serialize a date, for example, to `2019-12-02 20:01:00`. The new behavior will serialize a date to something like `2019-12-02T20:01:00.283041Z`. This will provide more info if you're, for example, building API's.
+
+If you want to keep using the previous behavior you can override the `serializeDate` method on your model:
-Upgrade notes will be placed here.
+ /**
+ * Prepare a date for array / JSON serialization.
+ *
+ * @param \DateTimeInterface $date
+ * @return string
+ */
+ protected function serializeDate(DateTimeInterface $date)
+ {
+ return $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s');
+ }
