## Catalyst 1.8.0 and create-catalyst 1.1.0

Catalyst v1.8.0 is now available, along with `@bigcommerce/create-catalyst@1.1.0`.

* **Tax display settings** - Catalyst now honors the store's Tax Display setting (`Inc. Tax`, `Ex. Tax`, or `Both`) across product detail, product listing, search, compare, and home page product experiences.
* **Locale URL paths** - Catalyst now reads store owner-configured `Locale.path` values from the Storefront GraphQL API, so locale subfolders can follow the control panel configuration instead of always using the locale code.
* **Consent-aware cookies** - visitor, visit, and currency cookies now respect shopper consent, and Auth.js session tokens are now browser-session cookies without an `Expires` attribute.
* **Storefront fixes** - variant backorder information displays on PDPs, WYSIWYG images resolve correctly on headless domains, and Catalyst now tracks its true release version in `core/package.json`.
* **Makeswift updates** - `@bigcommerce/catalyst-makeswift@1.8.0` includes Catalyst 1.8.0 and adds interaction-mode site navigation in the Makeswift builder.
* **create-catalyst deprecation** - `create-catalyst integration` is now deprecated, hidden from `--help`, and remains available during the transition to `catalyst upgrade`.
