+Significant improvements:

+  annotations for public API -- by :user:`kasium`.
+
+- :pr:`401` (related to the :pr:`352` effort): Started reusing the
+  the ``expriration_interval`` setting in the low-level

+  hardware systems -- by :user:`MichaIng`.

+- Integrated publishing GitHub Releases into the workflow.
+- Migrated the docs theme to `Furo <https://pradyunsg.me/furo>`__
