 # DevFoundation Changelog
 
 
+## 1.5.0: October 22, 2025
+
+This release adds the `UserSelection` type, a generic structure that manages a user’s selection with
+a fallback to a default value. This type prioritizes explicit user choices over programmatic
+defaults while maintaining separate tracking of both values, ensuring user preferences are never
+accidentally overwritten by programmatic updates to defaults.
+
+
 ## 1.4.0: October 8, 2025
 
   - We’ve added `Duration`-based alternatives to all APIs that take a `TimeInterval`. Specifically,

+import Foundation
+
+/// A generic structure that manages a user’s selection with a fallback to a default value.
+///
+/// `UserSelection` prioritizes explicit user choices over programmatic defaults while maintaining separate tracking
+/// of both values. When a user has made an explicit selection, that choice is always preserved and used, regardless
+/// of changes to the default value. This ensures user preferences are never accidentally overwritten by programmatic
+/// updates to defaults.
+///
+/// For example,
+///
+///     // Programmatically set an initial default theme
+///     var themeSelection = UserSelection(defaultValue: "light")
+///     print(themeSelection.value) // "light"
+///
+///     // User explicitly selects a theme
+///     themeSelection.selectedValue = "dark"
+///     print(themeSelection.value) // "dark"
+///
+///     // Programmatically update the default theme preference
+///     themeSelection.defaultValue = "auto"
+///     print(themeSelection.value) // Still "dark" - user’s choice is preserved
+///
+///     // User clears their selection to use programmatic default
+///     themeSelection.selectedValue = nil
+///     print(themeSelection.value) // "auto" - now uses updated programmatic default
+///
+/// This pattern is particularly useful when you need to distinguish between user-specified values and
+/// programmatically-determined defaults that may change over time, ensuring explicit user choices are never overwritten
+/// by updated defaults.
+///
+/// ## Protocol Conformance
+///
+/// `UserSelection` conditionally conforms to `Codable`, `Equatable`, `Hashable`, and `Sendable` when the wrapped
+/// `Value` type also conforms to these protocols, making it suitable for persistence, comparison, hashing, and
+/// concurrent programming scenarios.
