Quick review of the new WordPress 3.8 features:
1. New flat, minimalistic & responsive admin design
Finally WP admin interface received a fresh & modern look, which will is based on: MP6 plugin.
2. Dashboard homepage has been simplified & redesigned
New dashboard is now having only few but more useful & relevant widgets.
3. Better live preview of themes
Process of choosing themes has been also improved and new, faster interface has been added for the theme previews.
4. Redesigned & improved widgets page
Finally we are now able to add widget sidebar destination without dragging it across the screen.
5. New Twenty Fourteen Theme
If like me, you were never a fan of Twenty Thirteen, good news is that the new default theme coming in WP 3.8 is looking much better, you can check the Twenty Fourteen live demo.
