We are pleased to announce the release of Yii Framework version 2.0.54.

Please refer to the instructions at https://www.yiiframework.com/download/ to install or upgrade to this version.

In this release:

• PHP 8.5 support. The minimum supported version was raised from 7.3 to 7.4.
• PHPStan/Psalm annotations revamped, adding better IDE support and static types.
• Fixture loader now throws exceptions instead of ignoring missing fixtures.
• ArrayDataProvider now supports paths as keys.
• BaseStringHelper::convertIniSizeToBytes().
• Bug fixes.

Thanks to all Yii community members who contribute to the framework, translators who keep documentation translations up to date, and community members who answer questions at forums.

Special thanks goes to Maksim Spirkov who took care of the majority of annotation-related changes.

There are many active Yii communities, so if you need help or want to share your experience, feel free to join them.
