    • New features with links to PRs
    • Bug fixes with links to issues
    • Breaking changes with migration notes
    • Deprecation notices
    • Dependency updates
  5. Update version references in package.json, Cargo.toml, or equivalent
  6. Create a git tag for the release
  7. Draft release notes with the changelog content
