v4.0.0.beta1

Our first beta release of ActiveAdmin v4, six months in the making! It's using TailwindCSS and has mobile web, dark mode and RTL support with a default, customizable theme through partials. This release assumes cssbundling-rails and importmap-rails is installed and configured in the host app.

Try out the demo app to see the new theme. Soon, we'll flesh out the demo to include more admin resources.

Please review the Upgrading guide thoroughly before starting. Since it’s an early release, only consider updating if you are willing to do so or are starting a new project. If you have any feedback or questions, please create a discussion.
