 # Changelog
 All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
 
-## [2.10.0] - 2022-09-08
+## [2.11.0] - 2022-09-27
+
+### Changed
+- When using Web Serial API, the interactions between the client library
+  (as an example, the Arduino `arduino-chromeos-uploader` libray) has been simplified.
+- A new parameter `dialogCustomizations` has been added to the upload functionality. It's used
+  to provide custom confirmation dialogs when using the Web Serial API.
+  It has no effect with other daemons.
+
+### Removed
+- `cdcReset` functionality, now it's embedded in the `upload` functionality
+  in the Web Serial daemon.
+### Changed
+
+## [2.10.1] - 2022-09-08
 
 ### Changed
 - Fixed a bug released in 2.9.1 caused by the wrong assumption that the build filename is always at the end of the command line. This fix makes the library backward compatible with older ESP boards.
