+# bloop `v2.0.0-RC1`
+
+Bloop v2.0.0-RC1 is a new major release, which changes a number release
+artifacts and the way Bloop clients should connect to the server.
+
+Specifically:
+
+- launcher, bloopgun, sockets modules have been removed
+- bloop-rifle module has been added, which is responsible for starting the Bloop
+  server and connecting to it
+- cli module has been added, which produces the native image binary so that
+  Bloop can be used from command line
+- Bloop will now use named sockets added in JDK 16 as the primary way of
+  communicating with clients. This means Bloop itself will only run with JDK 16
+  or higher now, however all needed flags have been added previously, so that
+  code compiles with the correct version of JDK in mind.
+
+If you use Bloop in your tools, do let us know and we can help you integrate
+with the new changes.
+
+## Installing Bloop
+
+For more details about installing Bloop, please see
