Kexi 3.0.0 is a major milestone of the open-source database manager suite, which is considered the perfect replacement for proprietary alternative from Windows or Mac OS X platforms, including but not limited to Microsoft Access, Oracle Forms, and FileMaker, and it includes a large number of improvements and enhancements since the previous versions. The most important change in the Kexi 3.0.0 release is the porting of the entire project to the latest Qt 5 technologies, so that it can be used in the most modern KDE Plasma 5 desktop environment releases. Another interesting change is that Kexi 3.0.0 is now mature enough to be used as a standalone application and not part of an entire office suite, such as Calligra.
