+
+## [0.2.0] - 2025-12-12
+
+### Added
+
+- **Deserialization operator (`>>`)** for deserializing queried values into arbitrary types ([#46](https://github.com/jiftechnify/valq/pull/46))
+  - Deserialize queried values into any type implementing `serde::Deserialize`
+  - Syntax: `query_value!(obj.field >> (Type))`
+    - Don't forget to wrap the destination type with parentheses!
+
+- **Null coalescing operator (`??`)** for unwrapping query results with default values ([#50](https://github.com/jiftechnify/valq/pull/50))
+  - `... ?? <expr>` to provide a custom default value
+  - `... ?? default` to use `Default::default()` as the fallback
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Arbitrary type conversion with `->` operator** ([#46](https://github.com/jiftechnify/valq/pull/46))
+  - No longer limited to hard-coded conversions!
+  - Any `as_xxx()` method available on the value type can be used
+
+- **Made syntax more JS-like** ([#47](https://github.com/jiftechnify/valq/pull/47))
+  - More flexible bracket notation `[...]`
+    - Put arbitrary Rust expressions and enjoy unlimited dynamic queries!
+    - Removed `."key"` syntax in favor of revamped bracket notation
+  - `??` operator for unwrapping `Option`s
+  
+### Documentation
+
+- Removed tedious enumeration of macro matching patterns from documentation ([#49](https://github.com/jiftechnify/valq/pull/49))
+- Added comprehensive examples for all major features
+- Clarified query syntax specification
+
+## [0.1.0] - 2021-12-19
+
+Initial release with basic query functionality.
+
+### Added
+
+- `query_value!` macro for querying semi-structured data
+  - Dot notation for accessing object properties (`.field`)
+  - Bracket notation for array/object indexing (`[index]`)
+  - Mutable reference extraction with `mut` prefix
+  - Basic type conversion using `as_***()` methods with `->` operator
+
+[0.2.0]: https://github.com/jiftechnify/valq/compare/0.1.0...0.2.0
+[0.1.0]: https://github.com/jiftechnify/valq/releases/tag/0.1.0
