Zikula Core 1.4 is intended as a transition release between the very popular 1.3.x series and Zikula Core 2.0.0. While
maintaining nearly 100% backward-compatibility, Core-1.4 lays the foundations of Symfony, Doctrine, Bootstrap,
Font-Awesome, jQuery and Twig which will be the basis of future development. A new namespaced module structure is
established that will be the new standard for 2.0.0 extensions as well as providing many new tools and features to make
your site exceptional.
