+
+- [Endian-agnostic serialization][rkyv_rend]
+- [Greatly improved performance][rust_serde_bench]
+- Enhanced `no_std` support
+- [Wrapper types][rkyv_wrapper_types]
+- [A new `BTreeMap` implementation][rkyv_btree_map]
+- Reduced dependencies
+- Support for some common external crates
+
+The full changelog can be found on the [release page][rkyv_0.7].
