# Medusa v2.0 Release Candidate #2

CMS_BREAK -->

## Get started with a new project

To get started using the RC, run the following command:

```bash
npx create-medusa-app@rc
```

This command will create a new Medusa project with our redesigned admin and a 2.0-compatible Next.js storefront. The Medusa application and the Next.js storefront are separate projects in separate folders.

## Update existing project
Ensure your **Medusa** dependencies in `package.json` are using the `rc` tag:

```json
{
  "dependencies": {
    "@medusajs/admin-sdk": "rc",
    "@medusajs/framework": "rc",
    "@medusajs/medusa": "rc",
    "@medusajs/medusa-cli": "rc",
    ...
  }
}
```

To ensure an upgrade to a new version is completed correctly, run the following sequence of commands:

```tsx
rm -rf node_modules
rm yarn.lock // or package-lock.json

yarn // If you are using yarn berry, you need to create the lock-file first
```

## Highlights

### Continued restructuring

> [!WARNING]  
Breaking change

Since the first RC, we have continued our code restructuring, this time affecting commonly used middleware. These have been moved from `@medusajs/medusa` to `@medusajs/framework` to make them usable outside the context of the core commerce package.

This is a breaking change if you are using any of the following middleware in your Medusa project:
- `applyParamsAsFilters`
- `clearFiltersByKey`
- `applyDefaultFilters`
- `setContext`
- `getQueryConfig`
- `httpCompression`
- `maybeApplyLinkFilter`
- `refetchEntities`
- `unlessPath`
- `validateBody`
- `validateQuery`

Importing these middleware will look as follows going forward:
```
import { validateBody } from "@medusajs/framework/http"
```
