We've been working hard on XenForo 2 for a long time and now we're excited to show it off. This demo represents an alpha version of XenForo 2 that's still a work in progress. While there will be bugs, we want to get your feedback and comments now so we can take them on board at this early stage.


This is the first step in the process leading towards a stable and supported XenForo 2.0.0 release. While we gather feedback and fix bugs with the demo, we'll be finishing off some behind the scenes work. Once we're happy with the state of the demo, the next step will be a developer preview release. This will be targeted at developers so they can start integrating with the XenForo 2 core code, but anyone with the necessary technical ability (and active license) will be able to install and play with it. After that, we'd follow the same beta process as previous 1.x releases.

If you have any feedback or you've noticed a bug, please let us know on the demo forum itself.
 
So far what I'm seeing is the same thing we have seen since 2000 when UBB was all the rave. Forum software has to eveolve and until it does forums will continue on a downward spiral.

I was hoping to see something along the lines of what Discourse has done or more in line with the way Reddit displays threads. Doesn't look like that is ever going to happen now.
 
It look like I might be the only one that likes what I'm seeing. Minimal themes that are fast loading and easy on the eyes are the way to go.

I look forward to seeing what the final version looks like and I can't wait to get my hands on it to give it a whirl.
