 * Import functions in the ArduinoJson namespace to get clearer errors
 * Improved syntax highlighting in Arduino IDE
+* Removed default capacity of `DynamicJsonDocument`
+
+> ### BREAKING CHANGES
+> 
+> The parameter to the constructor of `DynamicJsonDocument` is now mandatory
+>
+> Old code:
+>
+> ```c++
+> DynamicJsonDocument doc;
+> ```
+>
+> New code:
