 # Rodux Changelog
 
 ## Current master
-* No changes
+* Added `combineReducers` utility, mirroring Redux's ([#9](https://github.com/Roblox/rodux/pull/9))
+* Added `createReducer` utility, similar to `redux-create-reducer` ([#10](https://github.com/Roblox/rodux/pull/10))
+* `type` is now required as a field on all actions
+* Introduced middleware ([#13](https://github.com/Roblox/rodux/pull/13))
+	* Thunks are no longer enabled by default, use `Rodux.thunkMiddleware` to add them back.
+	* Added `Rodux.loggerMiddleware` as a simple debugger
+	* The middleware API changed in [#29](https://github.com/Roblox/rodux/pull/29) in a backwards-incompatible way!
+		* Middleware now run left-to-right instead of right-to-left!
+* Errors thrown in `changed` event now have correct stack traces ([#27](https://github.com/Roblox/rodux/pull/27))
 
-## 1.0.0 (TODO: Date)
-* Initial release
+## Public Release (December 13, 2017)
+* Initial release!

 ## Middleware
-Rodux provides an API that allows changing the way that actions are dispatched called *middleware*. To attach middlewares to a store, pass a list of middleware as the third argument to `Store.new`.

+
+!!! warn
+	The middleware API changed in [#29](https://github.com/Roblox/rodux/pull/29) -- middleware written against the old API will not work!
 
 A single middleware is just a function with the following signature:
 
 ```
-(next) -> (store, action) -> result
+(nextDispatch, store) -> (action) -> result
 ```
 
-That is, middleware is a function that accepts the next middleware to apply and returns a new function. That function takes the `Store` and the current action and can dispatch more actions, log to output, or do network requests!
+A middleware is a function that accepts the next dispatch function in the *middleware chain*, as well as the store the middleware is being used with, and returns a new function. That function is called whenever an action is dispatched and can dispatch more actions, log to output, or perform any side effects!
 
 A simple version of Rodux's `loggerMiddleware` is as easy as:
 
 ```lua
-local function simpleLogger(next)
-	return function(store, action)
+local function simpleLogger(nextDispatch, store)
+	return function(action)
 		print("Dispatched action of type", action.type)
 
-		return next(store, action)
+		return nextDispatch(action)
 	end
 end
 ```
 
 Rodux also ships with several middleware that address common use-cases.
 
+To apply middleware, pass a list of middleware as the third argument to `Store.new`:
+
+```lua
+local store = Store.new(reducer, initialState, { simpleLogger })
+```
+
+Middleware runs from left to right when an action is dispatched. That means that if a middleware does not call `nextDispatch` when handling an action, any middleware after it will not run.
+
 ### Rodux.loggerMiddleware
 A middleware that logs actions and the new state that results from them.
