+## Changelog
+
+We use [Changesets](https://github.com/changesets/changesets) to manage our changelog. 
+To create a new release, run the following command:
+
+```bash
+bun changeset
+```
+
+This will open a new editor where you can write a changelog entry. 
+Once you're done, run the following command to create a new release:
+
+```bash
+bun changeset:version
+```
+
+Create a pull request and merge it into the `main` branch, which will trigger the release workflow to publish the new version to npm.
