What's new in 2.0.0-rc1

I’m very excited to announce that LibrePCB 2.0 is feature-complete and that a first release candidate is available for download!

If you experience any issues with this release candidate, please let us know (e.g. a quick notification in our Matrix chat) so we can fix them in the final release! A list of known limitations / issues is available here.
