+elementary OS 8 Details Revealed!
+======
+Anticipating the elementary OS 8 upgrade? Here's what you need to know.
+elementary OS is undoubtedly one of the [most beautiful Linux distributions][1] . Just a month prior, we saw the release of [elementary OS 7.1][2] that focused on the privacy side of things.
+
+With a recent announcement, we now have a better look at what's in store for the next upgrade, elementary OS 8.
+
+And, it looks like this time, we could get the next elementary OS release a bit early.
+
+Let's dive in! 🤓
+
+### elementary OS 8: An Ambitious Effort
+
+The **developers of elementary OS have now shifted their focus** towards developing the OS 8 series, they are **expecting a considerable amount of architectural changes and transitions** with this.
+
+According to elementary OS 8's roadmap, this major version is being **built from the repositories for Ubuntu 24.04** , and as things stand right now, **OS 8 won't be released at least until April 2024**.
+
+They also added that **they have planned on a number of very ambitious goals** , with hopes that they will be able to complete the work in the next 6 months. But, they **intend to release OS 8 only when it's ready**.
+
+Let's discuss some of those goals.
+
+The first one is the **transition to[ **Wayland**][3] by default**, this is not a surprise, as we are seeing an upwards trend of its adoption by many major distros. Then there's the **continuation of the GTK 4 transition** , with various core apps being in the final stages of development.
+
+Other than that, they are in the **early stages of designing a new Quick Settings menu** , and they have also mentioned that **this release will feature some of the largest changes to the design of their desktop environment, Pantheon**.
+
+After reading the above, a question arises; **what will happen to elementary OS 7?**
+
+The developers have mentioned that **users who are running OS 7 should expect fewer updates from this point onwards** , they feel that the OS 7 series is largely complete.
+
+However, all apps that are provided as Flatpak packages will continue to receive updates regularly, this also includes many core apps of elementary OS.
+
+For more details, you can refer to the [official announcement][4], and if you are curious about the progress **on elementary OS 8** , you can keep an eye out on its GitHub [project board][5].
+
+**Want to try an early build of elementary OS 8?**
+
+Well, **experimental builds based on the Ubuntu 24.04 repositories** are available to download right now! Keep in mind, that for getting access, **you have to be a GitHub sponsor.**
+
+Head over to the official [builds website][6] to get started.
