Comment: STK is in maintenance mode

...

Info

Start new projects with the MTE. The STK is still maintained now in maintenance mode. We still maintain it but will not be actively developed develop it further.

...

Info

You can run STK projects on Magnolia 5.4. Include the STK module in your project. There is no need to migrate your project to MTE.

Big picture

Before Magnolia 5.4, the STK was a big rigid module that held a lot of very useful features. If you wanted to use features such as themes you had to depend on the STK module. Other modules such as RSS Aggregator, Categorization and some key imaging functions were also tightly bound to the STK and could not be used without it.

...

Yes. STK 2.9 is compatible with Magnolia 5.4. You can use it to run your old STK-based projects. This version of STK is smaller as we liberated functionality into independent modules.

...

Probably not. While many features were liberated from STK 2.9 into other modules, most of these changes are "under the hood". You likely won't see them. STKModuleVersionHandler upgrades STK 2.8 to 2.9 automatically.
