## Smaller Changes
* Added dynamic timeout handling for scripts on start based on setting of `default_container_timeout`. This is mostly only for folks with exceptionally slow internet.
+* Added explicit support for the `symfony` project type, see [docs](https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/quickstart/#symfony), thanks [@IndraGunawan](https://github.com/IndraGunawan).
* `ddev describe` changes how exposed ports are displayed for better clarity (thanks [@hanoii](https://github.com/hanoii))
* Only a limited set of locales is now installed in `ddev-webserver` by default. If you need more, use `webimage_extra_packages: [locales-all]`
* Complex `ddev composer` command usage with json or args with spaces is fixed. (A bug was introduced in v1.23.5.)

If your project is actually a Drupal 11 project, there's no reason to make any changes. If your project is Drupal 8-10, you may want to change it to project type drupal10
, for example although there's no meaningful difference in this release.
What if I want more locales than the ones provided by default?
The default locales installed in the web container for v1.24.0 are en_CA.UTF-8, en_US.UTF-8, en_GB.UTF-8, de_DE.UTF-8, de_AT.UTF-8, fr_CA.UTF-8, fr_FR.UTF-8, ja_JP.UTF-8, ru_RU.UTF-8
. If you need other locales, all locales will be installed if you add locales-all
to your webimage_extra_packages
in .ddev/config.yaml
For example, webimage_extra_packages: ["locales-all"]
+What should I do after upgrading DDEV?
+DDEV will already ask you to do a ddev poweroff
, but consider doing a ddev config --update
on your projects. This will auto-detect your project type and required PHP version. It may switch the drupal
type to drupal10
or drupal11
.

* The `drupal` project type is no longer a generic project type, but instead is an alias to the latest stable Drupal (`drupal11` right now). A number of folks gave feedback that it caused the startup time to be longer and the process more complex. (`ddev config --update` is no longer a part of the Drupal quickstart)
* In v1.23.5 we started preferring `vendor/bin/composer` to the specified `composer_version` but users thought that was a mistake, so this was reverted.
* The nginx-proxy router has been removed.
-* The `ddev service enable` and `ddev service disable` commands were deprecated, as they have long been superceded by the use of `ddev add-on get` and `ddev add-on remove`
-* Removed support for Python and Django4 projects. After more than a year, these did not gain traction or a community, so sadly we had to leave them behind.
+* The `ddev service enable` and `ddev service disable` commands were deprecated, as they have long been superseded by the use of `ddev add-on get` and `ddev add-on remove`. We apologize if this is an inconvenience, but we didn't see any significant usage of these commands. If you need something like that still, it's super easy to make a [custom command](https://ddev.readthedocs.io/en/stable/users/extend/custom-commands/) that would do the same thing, and consider delivering the custom command using an add-on.

From the entire team, thanks for using, promoting, contributing, and supporting DDEV!
