+Another sprint has come to an end and it seems that we have not slowed down a single bit 🚀. 0.12 is full of new components, platforms and organizational additions.
+
+I would like to give a shout out to [Greg Dowling (@pavoni)][@pavoni] as every release includes new work from him. He is constantly adding support for new platforms or improving the reliablity of existing components and platforms. Keep up the good work!
+
+This release includes a very frequent requested feature: the ability to organize entities in different tabs in the frontend. See [the demo] to see this in action and read more in the [group documentation][group] how to get started.
