[@aurelioflores4571]

Hi Mark, thank you for your attention, I have a question, I have often seen in the Magento documentation the following command specifically what it performs: composer --no-ansi --no-interaction install --no-progress --prefer-dist --optimize-autoloader I have seen that after localization they recommend that command, best regards

[@MarkShust]

Hey Aurelio, If you remove all of the flags/arguments of this command, it's basically just "composer install". The "no-ansi no-interaction" tells composer to not prompt the user for anything, which basically runs a headless composer install command which doesn't require your interaction to proceed. The "no-progress" flag doesn't display the progress output of running this command. The "prefer-dist" flag means that it prefers a distribution (tarball) of a package rather than retrieving it from source code, and the "optimize-autoloader" builds a file->class mapping which speeds up loads on production. Note that you probably don't want to run any of these flags in developer mode, as "composer install" is just fine and is the preferred method in development. So these flags are specific to production and may vary from environment to environment. Cheers, -M

[@sakikuyy]

First 🙂 Thanks for this informative video Mark!

[@MarkShust]

Woohoo... I appreciate it! 🙌 You're welcome, this is a really good M2 release.

[@StarlynsAgency]

Juicy

[@MarkShust]

Some good stuff just came out!

[@techwithcoding641]

just waiting when we the page builder include responsive functionality so we can style it from page builder instead of doing separate less styling

[@MarkShust]

Neat recommendation 👍

[@HaifengZhu-pn3uq]

I heard people say there is only page builder for Magento Commerce, I want to know if there is block editor or page builder for Magento Open Source

[@MarkShust]

That used to be the case, but Adobe open-sourced PageBuilder with Magento 2.4.3! So everyone should have access to it now, regardless of if you are Enterprise (Adobe Commerce) or Open Source (Magento).

[@vantruongdong1899]

Great, Mark! I'm struggling with upgrade version from 2.4.5 (PHP7.4) to 2.4.6 (used PHP8.1). Although I used PHP8.1 but error is "Magento supports PHP 8.1.0 or later". Can u help!

[@MarkShust]

You may want to confirm the PHP version listed in your composer.json file (and related composer lock file). Otherwise, that’s an odd error if you have PHP 8.1 installed!

[@skillboosteracademy]

Check this post : kzbin.info/www/bejne/f2bVe35-Z791l8U Also make sure your system full fill your Magento requirements.

[@musammil111]

Hi Mark, Thanks for your video. I have downloaded the magento2.4.6 trying to install with elasticsearch8.4.0. But I am getting the error "Could not validate a connection to the OpenSearch. No alive nodes found in your cluster" I have given only seachengine as Elastic search. But still is looking Opensearch. Please let me know the fix

[@MarkShust]

Is this with docker-magento? If so, please open a ticket in the repo. I’m not quite sure!

[@Act1veSp1n]

oh thank god they are doing public beta releases.

[@MarkShust]

Agreed, this is long overdue. Really looking forward to this.

[@hansphung]

Can I install it now?

[@MarkShust]

Yes, it was generally available as of 8am ET yesterday!

[@slava7359]

what I can say after upgrading several projects to Magento 2.4.5 the core looks pretty the same and does not use new php 8 features, so all these "perfect" updates look like just a bug fixing. even things that are declared deprecated by magento itself had not been changed (like using escaper class for templates, get rid of object manager, view models instead of helpers in templates etc.) new features like gallery look like trying to do the same things as modern frameworks did long time ago. and this creepy outdated frontend is still the same) huva theme gives some hope but again it looks like an attempt to follow modern frontend that works for years already on other platforms

[@MarkShust]

Magento 2.4.5 was primarily a bugfix release, which is why I didn’t create a video summary for it. It takes a while for the core to get updated code, and hopefully it’s something we see updated in newer versions. Your other comments are too critical for me to take seriously.

[@slava7359]

@@MarkShust in 2.4.6 core is pretty the same. it's not critical it's how it is. for example, I remember you was excited about declaring properties in the class constructor feature few years ago, it can help to decrease amount of Magento code significantly, but core constructors are still the same. And there are many more things like that
