Unity 4

The major release 4 of Unity introduces a completely new, fully rewritten web User Interface using modern technologies.

This is a significant technical step forward for the application, allowing us to enhance the user experience with lightweight widgets and improve compatibility with various browser plugins and tools.

 

 

New, cleaner default theme

 

Refreshed, lightweight User’s Home

 

 

The change in web technology also requires adaptation of branding and UI customizations. See the update instructions in the Unity Manual for details.

Besides technology and look and feel updates, Unity 4 also brings many other changes:

  • HomeUI has been generally refreshed. User credentials management is now more user-friendly. HomeUI also has a more lightweight design, making it easier to customize, brand, and embed.
  • The minimum Java version is now 17.
  • The UNICORE endpoint was removed since it is no longer needed by newer UNICORE versions.
  • The demo CA and server certificate have been updated.
