release notes

Release notes are a way of keeping track of changes made to a program or product. They are used to provide information about additions, updates, and bug fixes so that users are aware of what has changed. For example, when a new version of a computer program is released, the release notes will list all the features that were added in that version. It also might list any bugs that were fixed, or other changes that were made. This helps everyone who uses the program know what is different from the previous version. Release notes help make sure everyone is on the same page and can use the product safely and effectively.
