+k6 `v0.57.0` is here 🎉! This release includes:
+
+- Introducing helpers for functional testing.
+- The `k6 new` command now supports templates and ProjectIDs.
+- The `k6/experimental/csv` module gets a new `asObjects` option.
+- We no longer support the `k6/experimental/browser` module, in favor of `k6/browser`.
+- Moving most of non-public APIs to the `internal` package.
+
+## Breaking changes
+
+- [#4161](https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/4161) Drops `k6/experimental/browser`. If you're still using it, follow the [instructions](https://grafana.com/docs/k6/latest/using-k6-browser/migrating-to-k6-v0-52/) to move to the graduated and stable `k6/browser` module.
+- [#4133](https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/4133) Moves all not publicly used APIs in `internal` package. This was based on the publicly available extensions for k6 and may break private ones. More APIs will likely be removed or updated in follow-up releases after this more mechanical change.
+- [#4292](https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/4292) TypeScript is automatically supported and recognized if the script files use the `.ts` extension. It also deprecates `experimental_enhanced` compatibility mode as it is no longer necessary.
+
+## New features
+
+### New functional testing focused official jslib [k6-testing](https://github.com/grafana/k6-jslib-testing)
+
+The k6 team has been developing a new official jslib dedicated to functional testing. While it is still under active development and will potentially see breaking changes, the set of APIs and behaviors it offers are meant to make their way into k6 eventually, and it is now available for early feedback.
+
+[k6-testing](https://github.com/grafana/k6-jslib-testing) is a k6 JavaScript library that offers a seamless way to write functional tests in k6, using a Playwright-compatible assertions API. It exposes an `expect` function, with which assertions can be performed using specific matchers that reflect the expected results.
+Unlike current k6's `check` when `expects` assertions fail, the test will immediately fail with a clear error message, including the expected and actual values in a similar fashion to what users would observe when using Playwright assertions. 
+
+[There are many generic matchers](https://github.com/grafana/k6-jslib-testing?tab=readme-ov-file#3-standard-assertions) (and more to come), such as `toEqual`, `toBe`, or `toBeTruthy`, to only name a few, that can be used to assert conditions during a k6 test.
+
+```javascript
+import { expect } from 'https://jslib.k6.io/k6-testing/0.2.0/index.js';
+
+export default function () {
+    const response = http.get('https://test.k6.io');
+    expect(response.status).toEqual(200);
+    expect(response.body).toBeTruthy();
+    expect(response.json()).toEqual(JSON.stringify({ message: 'Hello, world!' }));
+}
+```
+
+[k6-jslib-testing](https://github.com/grafana/k6-jslib-testing) also includes browser-specific async matchers that wait until the expected condition is met such as `toBeVisible`, `toBeDisabled`, or `toBeChecked`, to name a few.
+
+```javascript
+import { expect } from "https://jslib.k6.io/k6-testing/0.2.0/index.js";
+import { browser } from "k6/browser";
+
+export const options = {
+  scenarios: {
+    ui: {
+      executor: "shared-iterations",
+      options: {
+        browser: {
+          type: "chromium",
+        },
+      },
+    },
+  },
+};
+
+export default async function () {
+  const page = await browser.newPage();
+
+  try {
+    // Navigate to the page
+    await page.goto("https://test.k6.io/my_messages.php");
+
+    // Type into the login input field: 'testlogin'
+    const loc = await page.locator('input[name="login"]');
+    await loc.type("testlogin");
+
+    // Assert that the login input field is visible
+    await expect(page.locator('input[name="login"]')).toBeVisible();
+
+    // Expecting this to fail as we have typed 'testlogin' into the input instead of 'foo'
+    await expect(page.locator('input[name="login"]')).toHaveValue("foo");
+  } finally {
+    await page.close();
+  }
+}
+```
+
+It is currently available as part of the [jslib.k6.io](https://jslib.k6.io) repository and is available to use in your k6 tests by adding the following import:
+
+```javascript
+import { expect } from "https://jslib.k6.io/k6-testing/0.2.0/index.js";
+```
+
+Try it out and give us feedback or contribute to the project on the [k6-jslib-testing repository](https://github.com/grafana/k6-jslib-testing)!
+
+### `--template` and `--project-id` flags for `k6 new` command [#4153](https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/4153)
+
+The `k6 new` command has been revamped to provide an improved experience when scaffolding new k6 tests. It now supports a `--template` flag with options such as `minimal`, `protocol`, and `browser`, letting you generate a script tailored to your specific use case.
+
+The command also now accepts a `--project-id` flag, which allows you to easily parameterize the test's Grafana Cloud configuration.
+
+```sh
+# Create a new k6 script using the 'protocol' template
+$ k6 new --template protocol
+
+# Create a Grafana k6 cloud-ready script with a specific project ID
+$ k6 new --project-id 12345
+```
+
+### New `asObjects` option in `k6/experimental/csv` module [#4295](https://github.com/grafana/k6/pull/4295)
+
+The CSV module's parsing operations now support the `asObjects` option, which enables parsing CSV data into JavaScript objects instead of arrays of strings (the default behavior).
+
+When `asObjects` is set to `true`, the module parses CSV data into objects where:
+
+- Column names from the header row become object keys.
+- Column values become the corresponding object values.
+- An error is thrown if no header row exists or if options modify the parsing start point.
+
+With the option set to `true`,
+
+```js
+import http from 'k6/http';
+import csv from 'k6/experimental/csv';
+
+const csvData = csv.parse('data.csv', { asObjects: true });
+```
+
+the following CSV file:
+
+```csv
+name,age,city
+John,30,New York
+Jane,25,Los Angeles
+```
+
+will be parsed into the following JavaScript objects:
+
+```js
+[
+  { name: 'John', age: '30', city: 'New York' },
+  { name: 'Jane', age: '25', city: 'Los Angeles' },
+]
+```
+
+Refer to the [CSV module's documentation](https://grafana.com/docs/k6/latest/javascript-api/k6-experimental/csv/) for more information.
+
