Release notes
Version 3.0.0
(stable)
Wed, Nov 25, 2020 - xdebug 3.0.0

Xdebug 3 includes major changes in functionality compared to Xdebug 2. The
primary way how you turn on functionality is through the new xdebug.mode PHP
configuration setting. This made it possible to massively increase performance
in many of Xdebug's sub systems as Xdebug is now much more conservative in
which hooks are enabled.

Configuration changes, massive performance improvements, and PHP 8 support are
the primary features in Xdebug 3, but there is much more. The upgrade guide
lists the changes in great detail, please read it:
