# ITK 5.4.0 Release Notes: ReadTheDocs Documentation

We are happy to announce the [Insight Toolkit (ITK)](https://docs.itk.org) 5.4.0 is available for download! 🎉 🍻 🥳 ITK is an open-source, cross-platform toolkit for N-dimensional scientific image processing, segmentation, and registration in a spatially-oriented architecture.

🔦 Highlights
-------------------------

We're excited to announce a transformation of ITK's documentation ecosystem in version 5.4.0. The documentation infrastructure has been modernized to provide a more accessible, maintainable, and user-friendly experience.

### New Markdown-Based Documentation

Our documentation has undergone a complete migration from the traditional landing page and wiki to a modern, Markdown-based system hosted on ReadTheDocs. Experience our enhanced documentation at [https://docs.itk.org](https://docs.itk.org).

*ITK's new Markdown-based documentation, editable on GitHub and hosted on ReadTheDocs.*

### Enhanced API Documentation

The Doxygen documentation has been seamlessly integrated into ReadTheDocs, offering several key advantages:
- Global CDN-powered access for fast, responsive performance worldwide
- Complete archive of all previous API versions
- Improved navigation and usability

*ITK's Doxygen documentation, hosted on ReadTheDocs, provides easy access to all previous versions.*

### Unified Search Experience

Leveraging ReadTheDocs' subprojects architecture, we've implemented a powerful unified search system that:

- Searches across all documentation sources simultaneously
- Delivers fast, relevant results
- Provides advanced search capabilities
- Improves discovery of related content

These improvements represent our commitment to providing the best possible documentation experience for the ITK community. The new system not only enhances accessibility but also sets the foundation for future documentation innovations.

### Elegant, Performance-optimized, Modern C++

This release candidate expands our support for elegant, performant, modern C++. For example, specializations of `std::tuple_size ` and `std::tuple_element` for `itk::ImageRegion` in order to support C++17 structured bindings enable compile-time optimized statements to provide a multidimenional region's index and size:

```cxx
auto [index, size] = image.GetRequestedRegion();
```

For more information on ITK 5.4's modern C++ support, see [the Release Candidate 1 release notes](https://docs.itk.org/en/latest/releases/5.4rc01.html).

### Python 3.11 and Stable ABI Wheels

Moreover, this release candidate extends the toolkit's sustainability and Python support through Stable ABI Python wheels. This is made possible by upgrades to SWIG and [scikit-build-core](https://scikit-build-core.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), the modern Python packaging standard evolution of scikit-build classic. Python 3.11 wheels will be recognized by `pip` and work with Python 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14, etc. While we also provide cross-platform wheels for Python 3.8-3.10, we can only use the Stable ABI with Python 3.11 because it is required for [`itk`'s NumPy support](https://docs.itk.org/en/latest/learn/python_quick_start.html#itk-and-numpy).

### Remote Module Enhancements

ITK Remote Modules now also have GitHub Action-driven mac ARM / Apple Silicon Python wheel generation support. While a Remote Module *setup.py* file is still supported in ITK 5.4, migration to a scikit-build-core *pyproject.toml* file is encouraged. One important advantage is the generation of Stable ABI wheels for Python 3.11+. To migrate to scikit-build-core, use [this pyproject.toml template](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKModuleTemplate/blob/main/%7B%7Bcookiecutter.project_name%7D%7D/pyproject.toml) and remove the *setup.py* file.

### DICOM and Web3 Testing Data

For a summary of changes that continue our sustainability evolution with Web3 testing data, see the [5.4 Release Candidate 2 release notes](https://docs.itk.org/en/latest/releases/5.4rc02.html). For a summary of DICOM improvements, including expanded support for additional modality features and crucial spatial metadata for Secondary Capture images, see the [5.4 Release Candidate 4 release notes](https://docs.itk.org/en/latest/releases/5.4rc04.html).

🙏 Congratulations
------------------------

Congratulations and **thank you** to everyone who contributed to this release.

Of the *60 authors* who contributed since v5.3.0, we would like to specially recognize the new contributors:

*Andrei Sandor, Nicklas Larsson, huangjxbq, Sankhesh Jhaveri, adrinkwater, FabioLolix, Vaibhaw, Ningfei Li, Max Aehle, Noah Egnatis, Federico Zivolo, Patrick Linnane, Shreeraj Jadhav, Shengpeng YU, Fernando Bordignon, Andras Lasso, Bernhard Froehler, Thomas BAUDIER, Matthieu LAURENDEAU, Fabian Wenzel, Mikhail Polkovnikov, Pritam Rungta, Florian de Gaulejac, Ramon Emiliani, Martin Hoßbach, Sadhana Ravikumar, and Gabriel Chartrand.*

We extend our gratitude to all the ITK community members who have contributed to this release through code submissions, bug reports, and insightful discussions online.

🗣️ What's Next
---------------

ITK 5.4.0 represents a transformative milestone in our documentation journey. The finalization of 5.4.0 was delayed due to dependency issues in the example documentation's infrastructure. While these are addressed, we'll continue to refine the 5.4 series through patch releases. We're excited to eventually migrate the examples to a similar robust foundation in future innovations.

Looking ahead, we're thrilled to announce that ITK 6, our next major release, will showcase a substantial array of modernizations. The community has been hard at work implementing significant improvements that will elevate development with and on the toolkit. Watch for upcoming alpha and beta releases of ITK 6, which will run parallel to our 5.4 maintenance efforts.

This dual-track approach ensures both stability for current users and innovation for those ready to explore new features. Stay tuned for announcements about ITK 6's preview releases, which will demonstrate the exciting evolution of the Insight Toolkit.

**Enjoy ITK!**
