 ## [Unreleased]
 
+- We upgraded the core stack to React Native `0.83.2` and aligned related React dependencies.
+- We upgraded multiple React Native ecosystem dependencies for compatibility and stability (including CLI, navigation, animation, media, and platform modules).
+- We migrated from `react-native-vector-icons` to the scoped `@react-native-vector-icons/*` package set.
 - We updated `.gitignore` to more precisely exclude `node_modules` directories in specific locations.
 - We added a new dependency for `@shopify/flash-list` to support the migration from FlatList to FlashList.
