> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/41766) in GitLab 11.7.
Releases mark specific points in a project's development history, communicate
information about the type of change, and deliver on prepared, often compiled,
versions of the software to be reused elsewhere. Currently, releases can only be
created through the API.
It's typical to create a [Git tag](../../university/training/topics/tags.md) at
the moment of release to introduce a checkpoint in your source code
history, but in most cases your users will need compiled objects or other
assets output by your CI system to use them, not just the raw source
code.
Navigate to **Project > Releases** in order to see the list of releases of a project.
GitLab's **Releases** are a way to track deliverables in your project. Consider them
a snapshot in time of the source, build output, and other metadata or artifacts
associated with a released version of your code.
At the moment, you can create Release entries via the [Releases API](../../api/releases.md);
we recommend doing this as one of the last steps in your CI/CD release pipeline.
## Getting started with Releases
Start by giving a [description](#release-description) to the Release and
including its [assets](#release-assets), as follows.
### Release description
Every Release has a description. You can add any text you like, but we recommend
including a changelog to describe the content of your release. This will allow
your users to quickly scan the differences between each one you publish.
NOTE: **Note:**
[Git's tagging messages](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Tagging) and
Release descriptions are unrelated. Description supports [markdown](../markdown.md).
### Release assets
You can currently add the following types of assets to each Release:
- [Source code](#source-code): state of the repo at the time of the Release
- [Links](#links): to content such as built binaries or documentation
GitLab will support more asset types in the future, including objects such
as pre-built packages, compliance/security evidence, or container images.
#### Source code
GitLab automatically generate `zip`, `tar.gz`, `tar.bz2` and `tar`
archived source code from the given Git tag. These are read-only assets.
#### Links
A link is any URL which can point to whatever you like; documentation, built
binaries, or other related materials. These can be both internal or external
links from your GitLab instance.

# Releases
You can turn any git tag into a release, by adding a note to it.
Release notes behave like any other markdown form in GitLab so you can write text and drag-n-drop files to it.
Release notes are stored in the database of GitLab.
NOTE: In GitLab 11.7, we introduced the full fledged [releases](../user/project/releases.md) feature. You can still create release notes on this page, but the new method is preferred.
You can add release notes to any git tag using the notes feature. Release notes
behave like any other markdown form in GitLab so you can write text and
drag-n-drop files to it. Release notes are stored in GitLab's database.
There are several ways to add release notes:
* In the interface, when you create a new git tag with GitLab
* In the interface, when you create a new git tag
* In the interface, by adding a note to an existing git tag
* with the GitLab API
