token 8.x-1.0-beta1

This is the first beta release of Token for Drupal 8.

This includes a large number of improvements and many new tokens. Most importantly is extensive support for field tokens (for both base and configurable fields), including chained tokens for entity reference fields and image urls and information based on image styles (previously provided by Imagecache Tokens).

This means that any content entity gets full token integration for its fields, without having to define anything at all. Limitation: Base fields are currently only defined when the token type for a given entity type is not explicitly defined, to prevent confusing duplicate tokens.

Another important new feature is support for [node:menu-link] tokens while creating and updating menu link definitions when editing a node.
