# Medusa v2.0 Release Candidate #5

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

### Removing `ourDir` from admin settings
> [!WARNING]  
Breaking change

The `outDir` has been removed in favor of internally computing output directory for the admin dashboard.  

The computation follows these rules
- If admin is not `disabled` and the `build` command is run without the `--admin-only` flag, the admin output directory will be `.medusa/server/public/admin` and it will be served from that same location from the Medusa instance.
- If admin is not `disabled` and the `build` command is run with the `--admin-only` flag, then the admin output directory will be `.medusa/admin`. This commands should be used for deploying the admin dashboard separately from the Medusa instance.


```diff
// medusa-config.ts

{
  // ...
  admin: {
-    outDir: 'some/path'
  }
}
```
