I am pleased to announce that the third milestone of Spring Boot 2.5 has been released and is available from our milestone repository. This release adds a number of new features and bug fixes.

Highlights of this milestone include:

• OpenMetrics support for Prometheus
• Support for environment variable prefixes
• More Buildpack updates
• A fresh new look for the docs (including a "dark theme").

For a complete list of changes and upgrade instructions, please see the Spring Boot 2.5-M3 Release Notes on the wiki and the updated reference documentation.

If you want to get started with 2.5 and try out the new features, you can bootstrap a new project on start.spring.io.
