Django 5.1 alpha 1 is now available. It represents the first stage in the 5.1
release cycle and is an opportunity for you to try out the changes coming in
Django 5.1.
Django 5.1 brings a kaleidoscope of improvements which you can read about in
the in-development 5.1 release notes.
This alpha milestone marks the feature freeze. The current release schedule
calls for a beta release in about a month and a release candidate about a month
from then. We’ll only be able to keep this schedule if we get early and often
testing from the community. Updates on the release schedule are available on
the Django forum.
As with all alpha and beta packages, this is not for production use. But
if you’d like to take some of the new features for a spin, or to help find and
fix bugs (which should be reported to the issue tracker), you can grab a
copy of the alpha package from our downloads page or on PyPI.
The PGP key ID used for this release is Natalia Bidart: 2EE82A8D9470983E.
