JHipster release 4.13.0
What's new
This release was initially supposed to be a patch release, to fix this very annoying bug:
- Missing locale data and UI issues when the native language is not English, see #6836
But as we also merged support for Angular 5.1, it has become a minor release:
- Upgrade Angular to 5.1.0 / TypeScript to 2.5.3, see #6841
- This also improves our Webpack build time by about 10 to 20%, which is very impressive!
As a result, this is recommended upgrade over JHipster v4.12.0 for everyone.

Manual upgrades
For a manual upgrade, first upgrade your version of JHipster with:

If you have an existing project, it will still use the JHipster version with which it was generated.
To upgrade your project, you must first delete its node_modules
folder and then run:

You can also update your project and all its entities by running

You can also update your entities one-by-one by running again the entity sub-generator, for example if your entity is named Foo
jhipster entity Foo
