+5.0.1
+-----
+
+This release closes the [5.0.1 milestone](https://github.com/jessesquires/Foil/milestone/8?closed=1).
+
+- Addressed some potential edge cases and issues with optional types and failable initializers. ([#95](https://github.com/jessesquires/Foil/issues/95), [@jessesquires](https://github.com/jessesquires))
+    - The default implementation of `UserDefaultsSerializable` for Swift built-in types (`Int`, `Double`, `String`, etc.) now provides a **non-failable** initializer because these initializers cannot fail. This still satisfies the protocol requirements.
+    - Added an `assertionFailure` to the `UserDefaultsSerializable` implementation for `RawRepresentable` to catch potential bugs when storing and fetching data after making changes to a `RawRepresentable` type.
+    - Documentation has been updated with thorough explanations of edge cases and considerations for `RawRepresentable` types. Please see the `README` for further details.

However, **this is highly discouraged** as all `plist` types are supported by default. `UserDefaults` is not intended for storing complex data structures and object graphs. You should probably be using a proper database (or serializing to disk via `Codable`) instead.

+#### Notes on [`RawRepresentable`](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/swift/rawrepresentable) types
+
+Using `RawRepresentable` types, especially as properties of a `Codable` type require special considerations. As mentioned above, `Codable` types must use `@FoilDefaultStorageOptional` out-of-the-box, unless you provide a custom implementation of `UserDefaultsSerializable`. The same is true for `RawRepresentable` types.
+
+> [!WARNING]
+> `RawRepresentable` types must use `@FoilDefaultStorageOptional` in case you modify the cases of your `enum` (or otherwise modify your `RawRepresentable` with a breaking change). Additionally, `RawRepresentable` types have a designated initializer that is failable, `init?(rawValue:)`, and thus could return `nil`.
+>
+> Or, if you are storing a `Codable` type that has `RawRepresentable` properties, by default those properties should be optional to accommodate the optionality described above.
+
+If you wish to avoid these edge cases with `RawRepresentable` types, you can provide a non-failable initializer:
+
+```swift
+extension MyStringEnum: UserDefaultsSerializable {
+    // Default init provided by Foil
+    // public init?(storedValue: RawValue.StoredValue) { ... }
+
+    // New, non-failable init using force-unwrap.
+    // Only do this if you know you will not make breaking changes.
+    public init(storedValue: String) { self.init(rawValue: storedValue)! }
+}
+```
