Best Practices for Release Notes

Release notes are an important part of your product's documentation. They help your users understand what's new, what's changed, and what's been fixed.

Be Clear and Concise

Your release notes should be easy to understand. Use clear language and avoid technical jargon when possible.

Categorize Changes

Group your changes into categories like "New Features", "Improvements", and "Bug Fixes". This makes it easier for users to find what they're looking for.

Include Visual Elements

Screenshots, GIFs, or videos can help users understand new features or changes. Include them when relevant.

Link to Documentation

If a new feature requires additional explanation, link to your documentation.
