DSpace 4.0 ships with a number of new features. Certain features are automatically enabled by default while others require deliberate activation. The following non-exhaustive list contains the major new features in 3.0 that are enabled by default: |
| Discovery: Search & Browse is now enabled by default in both XMLUI and JSPUI. Note: The Lucene/DB-based search & browse backend is still supported, but is deprecated and might be removed in a future release. Any new features should use the Discovery API instead of tying directly to Lucene, Solr or Elastic Search. - Discovery enhancements in JSPUI (example)
- Spell checking
- Solr-based item counter
