+# AiiDA v2.5.0 released
+
+We are pleased to announce that AiiDA v2.5 was just released [^1].
+It can be installed as always from PyPI using pip:
+
+    pip install aiida-core==2.5
+
+or using Conda instead:
+
+    conda install aiida-core=2.5
+
+This release includes a number of interesting features and bug fixes.
+For example, new storage backends are added that make it easy to setup profiles without a PostgreSQL server; ideal for testing and demonstration purposes.
+For a complete overview, please refer to the change log [^2].
+
+Happy computing!
+
+The AiiDA team
