Here’s a summary of what’s new in this preview release:

• JWT authentication improvements & automatic authentication configuration
• Minimal API’s parameter binding support for argument list simplification 

Data binding is a powerful technique for developing UIs: It makes it easier to separate view logic from business logic, and easier to test the resulting code.
