## **0.15.0** ???
## **0.15.0** November 25, 2015
The v0.15.0 Hugo release brings a lot of polish to Hugo. Exactly 6 months after
the 0.14 release, Hugo has seen massive growth and changes. Most notably, this
is Hugo's first release under the Apache 2.0 license. With this license change
we hope to expand the great community around Hugo and make it easier for our
many users to contribute. This release represents over **377 contributions by
87 contributors** to the main Hugo repo and hundreds of improvements to the
libraries Hugo uses. Hugo also launched a [new theme
showcase](http://themes.gohugo.io) and participated in
[hacktoberfest](https://hacktoberfest.digitalocean.com).
Hugo now has:
* 6700 (+2700) stars on github
* 235 (+75) contributors
* 65 (+30) themes
**Template Improvements:** This release takes Hugo to a new level of speed and
usability. Considerable work has been done adding features and performance to
the template system which now has full support of Ace, Amber and Go Templates.
**Hugo Import:** Have a Jekyll site, but dreaming of porting it to Hugo? This
release introduces a new `hugo import jekyll`command that makes this easier
than ever.
**Performance Improvements:** Just when you thought Hugo couldn't get any faster,
Hugo continues to improve in speed while adding features. Notably Hugo 0.15
introduces the ability to render and serve directly from memory resulting in
30%+ lower render times.
Huge thanks to all who participated in this release. A special thanks to
[@bep](https://github.com/bep) who led the development of Hugo this release again,
[@anthonyfok](https://github.com/anthonyfok),
[@eparis](https://github.com/eparis),
[@tatsushid](https://github.com/tatsushid) and
[@DigitalCraftsman](https://github.com/digitalcraftsman/)
## New features
* new `hugo import jekyll` command. [1469](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/pull/1469)
* The new `Param` convenience method on `Page` and `Node` can be used to get the most specific parameter value for a given key. [1462](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/issues/1462)
* Several new information elements have been added to `Page` and `Node`:
* `RuneCount`: The number of [runes](http://blog.golang.org/strings) in the content, excluding any whitespace. This may be a good alternative to `.WordCount` for Japanese and other CJK languages where a word-split by spaces makes no sense. [1266](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/issues/1266)
* `RawContent`: Raw Markdown as a string. One use case may be of embedding remarkjs.com slides.
* `IsHome`: tells the truth about whether you're on the home page or not.
## Improvements
* `hugo server` now builds ~30%+ faster by rendering to memory instead of disk. To get the old behavior, start the server with `--renderToDisk=true`.
* `hugo server` will watch by default now.
