Built with copier, it supports lifecycle management, enabling updates of derived projects as the template evolves. The template contains various cross-platform usable recipes to help in day-to-day schema development. One of the first applications of the template is the <a href=\"https://github.com/nfdi4cat/pid4cat-model/\"><b>pid4cat-model</b></a>, a metadata model for handle-based persistent identifiers.</p>",

-- Default `license` is now `Apache-2.0` (was `MIT`). #151
+[0.5.0]: https://github.com/linkml/linkml-project-copier/releases/tag/v0.5.0
 
 ### Added
 
+- Pytest-based integration test suite for the copier template, including
+  helpers module and CONTRIBUTING.md for the template. #140
+- Submission of releases to the LinkML community on Zenodo. #141
+- List of recommended mkdocs/material extensions in the project mkdocs
+  configuration. #148
+- Support for Python 3.14 in the template's CI matrix. #160
+- README in the `project/` directory so the folder is tracked even before
+  generation. #161 (fixes #124)
+- Auto-detect WSL2 in `just setup` and advise the user accordingly. #149
+- Copier prompt for an existing custom LICENSE file; when set, the user's
+  file is preserved and `pyproject.toml`'s `license-files` references it
+  (using the PEP 639 SPDX expression `LicenseRef-Custom`). #162 (closes #151)
+- Add Noel McLoughlin as a co-creator in the Zenodo metadata. #165
+- `tool.ruff` section in `pyproject.toml` excluding auto-generated `_version.py`
+  and setting the minimum Python version. #170
+- Module docstrings in template `__init__.py` files to avoid ruff D104. #170
 - New `existing_license_file` prompt: when set to the path of a license file
   already present in the project (e.g. `LICENSE.md`, `LICENSE.txt`), the
   template skips generating a new `LICENSE` and points `license-files` in

 ### Fixed
 
-- Fix `uv tool` command that includes jinja2-time into copier. #90
+- `just gen-project` tolerates a missing `project/` directory. #161
+- Generated YAML files (GitHub Actions, mkdocs) and `test_data.py` now pass
+  default yamllint/ruff checks. #170
+- `just _update-linkml` uses `uv lock` instead of `uv add` to avoid side-effect
+  of adding linkml as main dependency. #159
+- Reject invalid `project_name` input (e.g. trailing dot, single character) at
+  the prompt with a friendly message instead of crashing later. #159
+- Force-push to `gh-pages` during docs deployment to avoid history conflicts. #154
+- Align `uv sync` invocation in template workflows. #150
+- Skip ShEx integration test on Python 3.13 and install dependencies in the
+  integration test fixture. #140
+- Lint test tolerates warnings; example reduced to 4 warnings. #140
+
+### Changed
+
+- Default license for new projects is now Apache-2.0 (was MIT), matching
+  linkml core. #162
+- Drop Python 3.9 from the supported version matrix; bump minimum Python
+  requirement to >=3.10. #155
+- Update pre-commit configuration and recommend installing pre-commit via
+  `pre-commit-uv`. #145
+- Group Dependabot updates into a single monthly PR. #139
+- Update URLs throughout the project to the new linkml monorepo / template
+  location (README, migration notes, CHANGELOG). #132
+- Cleaner linter defaults: yamllint ignores non-compliant generated files and
+  uses line-length 88; pre-commit skips `.copier-answers.yml` and pins newer
+  tool versions. #170
+- Enable `set windows-shell` by default in the template `justfile`
+  (no-op on Linux/macOS). #170
+- README notes that migrating existing projects should review/merge template
+  linter configs rather than overwrite. #170

+### Added
+
+- Generate TypeScript output and allow regeneration of OWL artifacts. #113
+- `just` improvements: allow overriding generator commands and generating
+  additional formats. #114
+- mkdocs customizations and pymdown extensions in the generated project. #101
+- Document the `UV_DEFAULT_INDEX` environment variable for custom package
+  indexes. #97
+- Document handling of the WSL2 `just setup` error in the README. #99
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Fix `uv tool` install command so that `jinja2-time` is included with
+  copier. #90
+- Disable Jinja interpolation of `{{ }}` in generated outputs to avoid
+  double-brace breakage. #105
+- `just setup` no longer fails when the working tree is not git-clean. #102
+- Skip the docs-preview action on PRs originating from forks. #111
+
+### Changed
+
+- Adjust README and project metadata for the new home under the `linkml`
+  GitHub organization (replace `dalito` references, spelling fixes, remove
+  cookiecutter-era text). #94, #104
+- Update OWL settings in `config.yaml`. #96
+- Improve the docs-preview action and activate it by default. #115
+- Update all GitHub actions in the template to current versions. #108
+- Rename the example schema container slot `entries` to `people`. #110
