Developer release notes
Document technical changes for engineering teams and API integrators.
Developer release notes cover API breaking changes, database migrations, deprecations, and infrastructure shifts. They complement user-facing notes — for internal teams, partners, and integrators who need more than marketing copy.
Separate user and technical notes
User notes belong in the public changelog. Technical notes live in the HyperRelease release — visible to the team and documentable for integrators who need migration guidance.
Explicit breaking changes
Every incompatible change should be listed clearly with a migration path. Your release checklist can require this documentation before the release moves to Ready.
Searchable history
“When did endpoint X change?” — HyperRelease release history answers with context, not a scavenger hunt through Git tags and Slack threads.
In summary
Developer notes protect integrators and speed up debugging — do not skip them.
