Frequently Asked Questions

Good release notes are scannable, user-focused, and benefit-oriented. Lead with what users can now do (not what you built), group by impact, and include visuals for major features.

Match detail to audience. Customer-facing: focus on benefits, keep it brief. Internal/developer notes: include technical details, migration steps, breaking changes.
