Migrating to Version 3.1

Minimum required PHP version is 7.2.

Nette version 3.1 means that you have these packages installed in version 3.1.*:

"require": {
	"nette/application": "3.1.*",
	"nette/bootstrap": "3.1.*",
	"nette/forms": "3.1.*",
	"nette/http": "3.1.*",
	"nette/security": "3.1.*",
},

Warning: for other packages, install the latest version that Composer will allow! They may have different versioning. Try "*" and see what version Composer installs.

All the name changes mentioned in this document mean that the original names still exist and work, of course, they are just marked as deprecated. You may encounter the IDE visually marking them as deprecated.
