+=== Removal of {gitops-title} Application Manager CLI, kam
+
+* With this release, support for the {gitops-title} Application Manager command-line interface (CLI), `kam`, has been removed because this feature is no longer supported. As a result, all instances of `kam` have been removed from the {gitops-title} documentation. As an alternative to `kam`, you can use the Argo CD CLI that is available from {gitops-title} Operator v1.12.

You do not have to use `kam` to generate Application Environment manifests for the environments to show up in the *Developer* perspective of the {OCP} web console.

+Release notes contain information about new and deprecated features, breaking changes, and known issues. The following release notes apply for the most recent OpenShift {gitops-shortname} releases on {OCP}.
+
+{gitops-title} is a declarative way to implement continuous deployment for cloud native applications. {gitops-title} ensures consistency in applications when you deploy them to different clusters in different environments, such as development, staging, and production. {gitops-title} helps you automate the following tasks:
+
+* Ensure that the clusters have similar states for configuration, monitoring, and storage
+* Recover or recreate clusters from a known state
+* Apply or revert configuration changes to multiple {OCP} clusters
+* Associate templated configuration with different environments
+* Promote applications across clusters, from staging to production
