 ## Changed
 
-* Better config system
-    * Support for both a config file & environment variables
+* Better environment variable support
     * Each env var can now be provided from a file by appending it with `_FILE`
       & passing the path to the file as value
-* Revamped web framework
-    * All routes now return proper JSON where applicable & the correct status
