### Visual Studio Upgrade
As .NET 6 is a preview version you need to make changes on the Visual Studio 2019.
If you want to run a .NET 6 project on Visual Studio 2019, you need to install the latest .NET SDK 6 from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/6.0
and also enable the `Use Previews of the .NET SDK` option from Visual Studio 2019 options. See the screenshot:
Alternatively you can download the latest **Visual Studio 2022** preview to run/create the .NET 6 projects. We have tested the ABP solution with the Visual Studio 2022 `17.0.0 Preview 4.1`. Check out https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/preview/ for more information.
You can use any IDE that supports .NET 6.0, like **[Visual Studio 2022](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/)**.
### Migration Notes & Breaking Changes
This is a major version and there are some breaking changes and upgrade steps. Here, a list of important breaking changes in this version:

* Upgraded to .NET 6.0, so you need to move your solution to .NET 6.0 if you want to use the ABP 5.0.
* Upgraded to Bootstrap 5. This is the most important breaking change in ABP 5.0 and you should take care of it.
* `IRepository` doesn't inherit from `IQueryable` anymore. It was already made obsolete in 4.2.
