# Change Log for SD.Next
## Update for 2025-07-05
## Update for 2025-07-07
### Highlights for 2025-07-07
In this release we finally break with legacy with the removal of the original [A1111](https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/) codebase which has not been maintained for a while now
This plus major cleanup of codebase and external dependencies resulted in ~53k LoC (*lines-of-code*) reduction and spread over [~680 files](https://github.com/vladmandic/sdnext/pull/4017)!
We also switched project license to **Apache-2.0** which means that SD.Next is now fully compatible with commercial and non-commercial use and redistribution regardless of modifications!
Feature highlights include:
- **ModernUI** layout redesign which should make it more user friendly and easier to navigate
- New background replacement and relightning methods using **Latent Bridge Matching** and new **PixelArt** processing filter
- Compute improvements with support for **SageAttention2++**
And (as always) many bugfixes and improvements to existing features!
*Note*: We recommend clean install for this release due to sheer size of changes
Although upgrades and existing installations are tested and should work fine!
