Sentry is opening its new version 8 beta to the public after nearly 18 months of exploration and modernization. The beta is an early release candidate made up of over 2,000 individual commits and will be available at beta.sentry.io for Sentry customers. The new version features a brand new design, faster rendering, improved release tracking, assignment, event merging, and many other changes. While the beta is considered stable, users should expect some display issues and may not see everything running smoothly immediately. Users are encouraged to provide feedback on the new release through GitHub's public issue tracker. The Sentry team will continue to work hard to improve and refine their platform to provide the best possible experience for developers and teams.
