## Executive Summary (TL;DR)
Directus v12.0.1. Source highlight: Directus is free for individuals and organizations under $5M annual revenue and 50 employees.\

## New Features
- Added keyboard-editable date entry directly in the datetime field. The field shows its formatted value at rest and swaps to editable date segments on focus, while a calendar button still opens the picker popup. (#27693 by @robluton)
- Added inline editing support to the JSON repeater interface. (#26863 by @bryantgillespie)

## Bug Fixes
- Fixed license badge spacing issue (#27713 by @robluton)
- Fixed license modals being impossible to dismiss when shown above a route drawer (e.g. field detail pages) by keeping dialog focus traps stacked in visual order, and scoped license dismissal cookies to the whole app so dismissals persist across navigation (#27714 by @dstockton)
- Fixed revision snapshots being assigned to the wrong items during batch updates when read order differs (#27407 by @luciemdx)
