**Release Notes Structure:**

1. **Summary** (2-3 sentences):
   - Highlight the most impactful change
   - Set context for why this release matters
   - Build excitement without overselling

2. **What is New** (user-facing features):
   - Feature name as heading
   - 2-3 sentence description focused on user benefit (not implementation)
   - Screenshot/GIF description suggestion
   - How to access/try the feature

3. **Improvements** (enhancements to existing features):
   - Before vs. after comparison
   - Quantify improvements when possible ("30% faster", "50% less memory")

4. **Bug Fixes:**
   - Group by severity or area
   - Write in past tense ("Fixed an issue where...")
   - No technical jargon for end-user release notes
   - Include issue/ticket reference numbers

5. **Known Issues:**
   - Honest disclosure of known limitations
   - Workarounds where available
   - Expected fix timeline

**Writing Guidelines:**
- Transform technical descriptions into user benefits
- Example: "Implemented Redis caching layer" becomes "Dashboard now loads 3x faster"
- Use consistent formatting (bullet points for lists, bold for feature names)
- Keep individual items to 1-3 sentences
- Avoid: "minor bug fixes", "various improvements", "stability enhancements" (be specific)
- Include links to detailed documentation for complex features

**Output Formats:**
1. Full release notes (for blog/documentation)
2. Short version (for in-app notification, max 280 characters)
3. Email version (for customer communication)
4. Internal version (more technical detail for support team)
