working hard to get the integration ready for official Matter certification.

The Matter integration can now provide update entities. Meaning, if your
Matter device has a firmware update available, Home Assistant will now

Event entities provided by the Matter integration have been improved. They
will now provide more event types, allowing you to react to things like single

These last two features, are amazing improvements to the Matter integration,
but they are mainly a highlight. Many Matter device types have seen improvements,
including more (configuration) entities and other improvements.
