The version 6 of INTER-Mediator is released under the new version notation policy.

This version got stated from several years ago, and it's not only adding features but also we changed the fundamental process of INTER-Mediator for stepping up as below:

AJAX communication when reading from the database is asynchronous, and all communication between the client and server is asynchronous.
PHP 5 was removed from supported platforms, and PHP 7 or later became a server-side requirement, but in effect it will be PHP 7.1 or later.
Implement with ECMAScript 6 features. Internet Explorer is no longer supported because browsers require implementation of Promise and async / await.
We also started a Node.js-based server (service server) so that validation can be performed mainly on the server side.
JavaScript unit tests can now be run with jest
Independent functions that can be operated independently and mechanisms that use external libraries as plug-ins
SwiftMailer is now used to send emails, improving templates and allowing the templates themselves to be stored in the database（Sending Mail (Ver.6/Japanese)）
You can now send messages to Slack (Send Messages to Slack)
Using composer to integrate libraries. Also, npm is going to be installed in the composer script so that the JavaScript library is also installed automatically. However, it is now mandatory to execute the composer update command (Download and Installation (Ver.6 or later))
Compatible with Amazon S3 as a file storage location (Time Difference and S3 Compatible Demo
Enabled to display and change the time according to the time zone of the browser (Implementation of Time Processing Corresponding to Time Difference, Time Difference and S3 Compatible Demo)
