Companion v4.2.0 - Release Notes

This is a slightly smaller release than usual, focussing more on smaller improvements.

End of support for macOS 11

This version of Companion requires macOS 12 or later

Rebuilt Documentation

The Companion User Guide has been rewritten to use a new rendering system.

This allows us to host a new publicly available version of the documentation online which is versioned per release, as well as building it in a simplified form within Companion

The new tools allow us to do more with the documentation and will make it easier for us to keep up to date too!
