 ### Highlights from this release
-- Font rendering crate was switched to `skrifa` which unlocked font hinting
-- `Context::update` was split into `Context::ui` and `Context::logic`
+- Sharper text unlocked by switching font rendering crate to [`skrifa`](https://crates.io/crates/skrifa)
 - Fade out edges of `ScrollArea`s
+- Use `Ui` as the main entrypoint

+### More `Ui`, less `Context`
+egui has long had a confusing overlap in responsibilities between `Context` and `Ui`.
+In particular, you could add panels to either one (or both!).
+In this release, we switch from having `Context` be the main entrypoint, and instead provide whole-app `Ui`.
+In egui we've replaced `Context::run` with `Context::run_ui`, and changed viewports to be given a `&mut Ui` instead of `Context`.
+In `eframe` we've deprecated `App::update` replaced it with `App::ui` (which provides a `&mut Ui` instead of a `&Context`).
+
+In addition to this, `Ui` now derefs to `Context`, so all code like `ui.ctx().input(…)` can now be written `ui.input(…)`.
+This means you are much less likely to have to use naked `Context`s.
+`Context` can still be useful though, since they implement `Clone` and can be sent to other threads so you can call `.request_repaint` on them.

+
+### Changed panel API
+As part of the above work, we have unified the panel API.
+`SidePanel` and `TopBottomPanel` are deprecated, replaced by a single `Panel`.
+Furthermore, it is now deprecated to use panels directly on `Context`. Use the `show_inside` functions instead, acting on `Ui`s.
+
+This unification and simplification will make it easier to maintain and improve panels going forward.
