- The band blue, green and tan background colors are no longer supported and will change to a light grey color
- The main menu bar, breadcrumbs and footer navigation are changing
- .wdn- class names are changing
4.1 styles mapped to 5.0 classes
.wdn-inner-wrapper → .dcf-wrapper.wdn-stretch → .dcf-full-width.wdn-center → .dcf-txt-center
5.0 Classes
Goal of the 5.0 Classes- Reduce file size of CSS by removing duplication
- Provide pre-defined classes with formatting flexibility
- Improve style consistency across sites
- Reduce or eliminate the need to write custom CSS
Whenever possible, use 5.0 Classes instead of writing CSS
