Version 3.0 is all about layouts and improvements with the longest changelog ever that has been in development since November 2020. This update is still based on latest Bootstrap 4.* version due to very slow process of dropping IE11 by customers and organizations. The next update will include a completely new version of Limitless based on Bootstrap 5, where template core and all components will be written on vanilla JS, components/apps/layouts will be separated and themes will be based on CSS variables (where dark theme will be available for all light themes). Technically it will be a new template created from scratch, which has even more flexibility and layout options. And of course will be available for free for all fellow customers that already have Limitless license.

Future plans

1. Bootstrap 5
2. Extended theming support with CSS variables, meaning each theme will have its own dark version that can be switched without full page reload. Including OS detection
3. New improved file structure to speed up updates
4. A bunch of fully featured apps: help system, kanban boards, project management, booking system, real estate system, messaging system, emails, ecommerce etc.
5. New layouts and new themes
6. Refreshed design
7. No IE support
8. Vue.js version (free addition to the template, not a new template)
9. etc

This update is the last one in 2.* series, next will be 3.0 that will include quite a lot of new app pages and general design update.

Bootstrap 4 version has its own changelog, because 2 Bootstrap version are completely different. Major part of components have been customized in order to support BS4 and flexbox layout, so components from BS3 can be used in this version. Since all components are the same in all layouts, the template now supports 1 main layout and 4 child layouts - this means only 1st layout includes all components, child layouts include only layout-related files. This makes maintenance easy and fast. Main highlights:
