 Since this docker image only has one tag which is `latest`, there are no versions. However we'll write changes with the date at which they occured.

+### Fixed
+- Koel now creates the manifests (the files that let you install Koel as an app) at `/manifest.json` and `/manifest-remote.json`. The `start_url` value comes from `APP_URL`. The name comes from your custom name on Koel Plus. Before this change, the files held a placeholder address `https://your.koel.host`. You do not have to edit or bind-mount the file. To keep a manifest that you wrote, bind-mount it over `/var/www/html/public/manifest.json`, and Koel serves your file instead.

 ### Fixed
 - ⚠ Image storage path moved to follow koel/koel#2479. If you're upgrading from a previous release, update your `docker-compose.yml` so the `image_storage` volume binds to `/var/www/html/storage/app/public/images` instead of `/var/www/html/public/img/storage`. Existing data in your `image_storage` volume / host bind transfers over automatically when you switch the mount point — files inside the volume don't move, only the mount path inside the container does.
