Release notes ​

Every major release gets release notes: a readable account of what changed since the previous major, why it changed, and what it means for you. They sit next to the migration guide, which has the step-by-step code changes. Read the release notes to decide when to upgrade, and the migration guide when you do.

Each package's CHANGELOG.md still lists every single release, minor and patch included. The release notes are the summary for people, the changelogs the complete record.

What every release note covers ​

  • Overview: the release in a few sentences, and who it matters to.
  • What's new: by package, with examples and pictures where a change is easier to see than to read.
  • What's not changing: so you know what you can leave alone.
  • Deprecated: what's deprecated and still works, what replaces it, and the major it will be removed in.
  • Removed: what this major removes, after its grace period.
  • FAQ: whether you need to upgrade now, how big the work is, what happens to the previous major, and when deprecated APIs are removed.
  • Getting help: where to ask, and how to report a problem with the release.

Each major release also gets a set of release banners for the notes and for sharing: a banner, a social card, a square and a portrait image, each at 1x and 2x, rendered from scripts/banners/<release>.mjs.
