 Data Morph is intended to be used as a teaching tool to illustrate the importance of data visualization. Here are some potential classroom activities for instructors:
 
 - **Statistics Focus**: Have students pick one of the [built-in datasets](https://stefaniemolin.com/data-morph/stable/api/data_morph.data.loader.html#data_morph.data.loader.DataLoader), and morph it into all available [target shapes](https://stefaniemolin.com/data-morph/stable/api/data_morph.shapes.factory.html#data_morph.shapes.factory.ShapeFactory). Ask students to comment on which transformations worked best and why.
-- **Creativity Focus**: Have students [create a new dataset](https://stefaniemolin.com/data-morph/dev/tutorials/custom-datasets.html) (*e.g.*, your school logo or something that the student designs), and morph that into multiple [target shapes](https://stefaniemolin.com/data-morph/stable/api/data_morph.shapes.factory.html#data_morph.shapes.factory.ShapeFactory). Ask students to comment on which transformations worked best and why.
-- **Math and Coding Focus**: Have students [create a custom shape](https://stefaniemolin.com/data-morph/dev/tutorials/shape-creation.html) by inheriting from `LineCollection` or `PointCollection`, and try morphing a couple of the [built-in datasets](https://stefaniemolin.com/data-morph/stable/api/data_morph.data.loader.html#data_morph.data.loader.DataLoader) into that shape. Ask students to explain how they chose to calculate the shape, and comment on which transformations worked best and why.

 Release Notes
 =============
 
+0.3.0 (February 17, 2025)
+-------------------------
+
+What's New
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+CLI
+~~~
+* Added ``--workers`` option to the CLI for running multiple morphs in parallel.
+* Renamed ``--ramp-in`` and ``--ramp-out`` as ``--ease-in`` and ``--ease-out``.
+* Added ``--ease`` option to the CLI, which is shorthand for ``--ease-in --ease-out``.
+
+Documentation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+* Added :doc:`tutorials/index` page to the documentation.
+* Added :doc:`tutorials/shape-creation` tutorial.
+* Added section to the documentation with ideas of how to use :ref:`classroom ideas`.
+* Updated contribution instructions in :doc:`tutorials/custom-datasets` tutorial.
+* Included reference to `article on the creation of Data Morph
+  <https://stefaniemolin.com/articles/data-science/introducing-data-morph/>`_
+  in the documentation header.
+* Included reference to `Data Morph: A Cautionary Tale of Summary Statistics
+  <https://stefaniemolin.com/data-morph-talk/>`_
+  (conference talk) in the documentation header.
+* Added `contributing guidelines <https://github.com/stefmolin/data-morph/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md>`_
+  and `code of conduct <https://github.com/stefmolin/data-morph/blob/main/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md>`_.
+* Configured canonical URL.
+
+Morphing
+~~~~~~~~
+* Reworked GIF creation logic to write only one PNG for distinct frames in the
+  animation and use frequency counts to determine frame duration for speed
+  improvements and less I/O.
+* Added three new datasets: soccer, pi, and gorilla. See the :class:`.DataLoader` for visuals.
+* Added four new shapes: :class:`.Club`, :class:`.FigureEight`, :class:`.Spade`,
+  and :class:`.Spiral`.
+* Refactored some shape logic to use more ``numpy`` for speed improvements.
+* Added ``center`` property to :class:`.Interval` and :class:`.BoundingBox` to simplify shape calculations.
+* Made it possible to unpack the bounds from the :class:`.BoundingBox`.
+* Switched from ``tqdm`` to progress bars powered by ``rich``.
+* Renamed the ``ramp_in`` and ``ramp_out`` arguments to :meth:`.DataMorpher.morph`
+  as ``ease_in`` and ``ease_out``.
+* Added :meth:`.Shape.get_name` method and :attr:`.Shape.name` attribute to replace
+  ``__str__()`` shape naming logic, which removed some redundancies in
+  :class:`.ShapeFactory`.
+* Refactored the shape code into separate modules per shape.
+* Renamed ``get_values()`` as :func:`.get_summary_statistics`.
+* Improved variable names in several spots for more readable code.
+
+Plotting
+~~~~~~~~
+* Added ``show_bounds`` parameter to :meth:`.Dataset.plot` to visualize the automatically-calculated bounds.
+* Added ``title`` parameter to :meth:`.Dataset.plot` with default showing the name and number of points.
+* Switched from using Matplotlib's ``tight_layout()`` to constrained layout.
+* Added :func:`.style_context` context manager for plotting in a Data Morph style.
+* Added test suite for :mod:`.plotting.style` module.
+* Changed plot layouts for :meth:`.DataLoader.plot` and :meth:`.ShapeFactory.plot_available_shapes`.
+* Adjusted grid of datasets in the documentation to use tighter plot bounds.
+
+Tooling
+~~~~~~~
+* Added new GitHub Actions workflow to run Data Morph on new/altered datasets, shapes,
+  or core logic.
+* Switched to trusted publishing on PyPI via GitHub Actions.
+* Added PR and issue templates.
+* Added ``pytest-xdist`` to dev dependencies and reworked the test suite to make it faster.
+* Switched from ``black`` to ``ruff`` formatting in pre-commit setup and included additional rulesets.
+* Added ``pyproject-fmt`` pre-commit hook.
+* Refactored shape tests.
+
+Bug Fixes
+^^^^^^^^^
+* Addressed compatibility issues with ``numpy>=2.0.0``.
+* Assorted performance and code quality improvements after running additional
+  ``ruff`` rules.
+* Fixed some incorrect return types.
+
+Dependency Updates
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+* Replaced ``tqdm`` dependency with ``rich``.
+* Replaced ``pytweening`` dependency with functions in :mod:`.plotting.animation`.
+* Replaced ``sphinxarg.ext`` Sphinx extension with ``sphinx_argparse_cli``.
+* Changed the minimum Sphinx version to 7.2.6.
+* Changed the minimum ``pydata-sphinx-theme`` version to 0.15.3.
+* Updated pre-commit hooks to the latest versions.
+* Factored out ``scipy`` dependency.
+* Updated GitHub Actions workflows for Node 16 deprecation.
+* Enabled Dependabot on GitHub Actions and switched to use commit hashes for versioning.
+* Updated Python testing matrix to include Python 3.9 through 3.13.
