+## Change Log
+
+### Behavioral Changes
+
+#### `JsonOptions` Configuration
+
+A key change in version 2.0 is the shift from **Newtonsoft.Json** to **System.Text.Json**. Previously, we configured the default `JsonOptions` to match the settings used for document serialization. In this release, however, we’ve reverted that approach, and the `JsonOptions` are no longer configured by default. This change provides greater flexibility, allowing you to customize JSON serialization as needed.
+
+If your MinimalAPI returns YesSql documents, entities (implementations of `IEntity`) or content (implementations of `IContent`), such as `ContentItem`, `User`, `Query`, or `Notification`, you may need to use `DocumentJsonSerializerOptions` for proper serialization. For example, when using Minimal API, instead of returning the result with `TypedResults.Ok(entity)`, you should use `Results.Json(entity, options.Value.SerializerOptions)`, resolving `IOptions<DocumentJsonSerializerOptions>` from the IoC container.
+
+For scenarios using `ApiController` to return YesSql documents or entities, we’ve introduced a new output formatters, `DocumentSystemTextJsonOutputFormatter` and `ContentSystemTextJsonOutputFormatter`, to automatically handle document serialization to JSON correctly.

+#### Content Item Shape Alternates Based on Alias and Slug
 
 Content item shapes can be overridden by their alias if `AliasPart` is attached or by their slug if `AutoroutePart` is attached. For examples, refer to the [docs](../reference/modules/Templates/README.md).
