### Highlights
1. Payload is now Next.js-native
2. Turbopack works out of the box (this will get faster over time, expect more here)
3. The Payload admin UI is built with React Server Components and automatically eliminates server-side code from your admin bundle, completely alleviating the need to use Webpack aliases to remove hooks, access control, etc.
4. GraphQL is now initialized only when you hit the GraphQL endpoint, and does not affect overhead of REST API routes
5. All UI components have been abstracted into a separate `@payloadcms/ui` package, which will be fully documented and exposed for your re-use once we hit stable 3.0 or before
6. You can run your own Next.js site alongside of Payload in the same app
7. You can now deploy Payload to Vercel, and there will be official support for Vercel Blob Storage coming soon (so no S3 needed for files)
8. Server-side HMR works out of the box, with no need for `nodemon` or similar. When the Payload config changes, your app will automatically re-initialize Payload seamlessly in the background
9. All custom React components can be server components by default, and you can decide if you want them to be server components or client components
10. Sharp has been abstracted to be an optional dependency
11. Payload now relies on the Web Request / Response APIs rather than the Node Request / Response
12. Express can still be used with Next.js' Custom Server functionality
13. Payload itself has slimmed down significantly and can now be fully portable, run anywhere. You can leverage the Payload Local API completely outside of Next.js if you want.
14. The data layer, including the shape of the database Payload used and the API responses in 2.0, has not been affected whatsoever

### Work to come
We are making this available to our community so that we can gather your feedback and test the new approach that Payload is taking. Don't expect it to be fully functional yet. There are some things that we are aware of that are not yet completed, but we're going to keep blazing through the remaining items as fast as we can to reach stable 3.0 as quickly and efficiently as possible. Here are a few of the items that we are still working on (not a full list):
1. `beforeDuplicate` hooks
2. The config `preview` function
3. Focal point / cropping
4. Documentation
5. Vercel Blob Storage adapter
6. Lots of bugs for sure
7. 100% of tests passing
8. Overall speed improvements
9. Support for all official plugins
10. An install script to be able to install Payload easily into any existing Next.js app
11. A full list of breaking changes for 2.0 -> 3.0, including an in-depth migration guide
