## Changelog snippets
PRs that fix a bug or add a new feature or enhancement should add a corresponding changelog entry.
The changelog can be found at `public/docs/release-notes.md`. If there is no section for the next release yet, just add
one using `## <i class="fa fa-tag"></i> 1.x.x <i class="fa fa-calendar-o"></i> UNRELEASED`. The version and date will
be filled later by the maintainers.
Add a short description for your change in the `Features`, `Enhancements` or `Bugfixes` section, creating the section
if needed. Have a look at previous entries for inspiration.
You are welcome to add a `(by [@your_username](https://github.com/your_username))` note to your entry.
