# Upgrading ## Upgrading to 1.0.0 1.0.0 is the first release and a fresh baseline. Deploy the complete core; no manual step is needed. 1. Copy the complete core over the installation, including `VERSION`, `includes/`, `admin/`, `css/`, `js/` and the root PHP files. Keep site-local data: `admin/config.php`, `content/`, `assets/images/`, `assets/fonts/` and uploads. 2. Open the dashboard once and check **System status** for the PHP version, extensions, paths and upload limits. 3. If the site uses a custom layout, verify that its templates and editable fields still render. 4. Custom save API integrations must send the resource revision with each save. The version rendered by `raijuVersion()` must read `1.0.0` from `VERSION`.
