We remained committed to our values of transparency, openness, and collaboration, engaging with our community members as much as possible to ensure that we are creating a framework that meets their needs.

One of the major highlights of 2022 was the release of .NET Core 7, which provided a powerful platform for ABP Framework to build upon.
