+
+## Release Details
+
+### Added start/stop/delete/restart buttons for Compose
+
+In the last month we've been addind support for more Compose features. Before you were only able to control a group of containers if they were in a Pod. Now we have added the ability to control a group of Compose containers. You can now start, stop, delete and restart a group of containers launched by either `docker-compose` or `podman-compose`.
+
+Stay tuned as we add even more features to Compose! If you have any feedback or feature requests, feel free to open an start a discussion on GitHub.

+
+### Kubernetes context on the status bar
+
+When using multiple Kubernetes configurations, you can switch from one context to another quickly, being able to work on a different cluster all-together. We've added a feature to show the Kubernetes context on the status bar. If there are multiple contexts available, you can now click and pick which one to use.
