Release notes / changelog bridge
Public changelog vs this help centre; self-hosted migrations; manifest versioning note.

This help centre explains how to use dFlow and how to migrate from legacy concepts.
Release notes and changelogs summarise what shipped in each version. Use both: one for tasks and mental models, the other for βwhat is new this week.β
Public changelog (marketing site)
Shipped product updates are summarised on the public site:
- dFlow changelog: high-level feature and fix announcements.
That page is aimed at all visitors; it may not list every internal migration flag or Payload migration name.
Self-hosted operators
When you run the control plane yourself:
- Track dashboard and core package versions you deploy; migrations under
apps/dashboard/src/migrations/(for example projects β applications and service ownership normalisation) ship with those releases. - Read
docs/projects-to-applications-rollout.mdanddocs/normalize-service-ownership-migration.mdin your checkout for operator procedures that align with the customer-facing Migrate from legacy Projects to Applications guide.
This documentation package
packages/docs/manifest.jsonversions the customer doc set (versionbumps when structure or pages change materially). It is not the same as the application semver.- Migration and Release Notes in the sidebar is the right place for long-lived migration guidance; the marketing changelog is the right place for time-ordered headlines.
- Databases and Templates are first-class sidebar sections. Their
manifest.jsonownerfields (parallel-databases-writer,parallel-templates-writer) mark content ownership; navigation order still followsIA.mdand rootmeta.jsonso readers see one coherent tree. - Product model background for Applications vs legacy Projects lives under Product model changes; shipped feature headlines stay on dFlow changelog.
