This release introduces a lot of new capabilities so lets dig into the details of what's new. For the purpose of this post I've broken these down into the following key areas.</p> <ul> <li><a href = "#progress-bar" > <span> Progress Bar </span> </a></li> <li><a href = "#deployment-paths" > <span> Deployment Paths </span> </a></li> <li><a href = "#plan-section" > <span> Plan Section </span> </a></li> <li><a href = "#prepare-section" > <span> Prepare Section </span> </a></li> </ul> <h3 id="progress-bar">Progress Bar</h3> <p>The first big change involves an overhaul of the general workflow where a new progress bar has been added covering four key stages <strong>Introduction</strong>, <strong>Plan</strong>, <strong>Prepare</strong> and <strong>Deploy</strong>. Once a stage has been completed, you move into the next stage of the progress bar. These stage markers can also be used as navigation allowing you to return to a previous stage if needed, this reduces the number backward clicks required compared to the previous release.</p>
