+## 01.01.2026 `v1.9.3` Big Update 🚀
+
+**𝓗𝓪𝓹𝓹𝔂 𝟚𝟘𝟚𝟞 🎉**
+
+* Added a new method `Color.str_to_hsla()` to parse HSLA colors from strings.
+* Changed the default syntax highlighting for `Data.to_str()` and therefore also `Data.print()` to use console default colors.
+* Added the missing but needed dunder methods to the `Args` and `ArgResult` classes and the `rgba`, `hsla` and `hexa` color objects for better usability and type checking.
+* Added three new methods to `Args`:
+  - `get()` returns the argument result for a given alias, or a default value if not found
+  - `existing()` yields only the existing arguments as tuples of `(alias, ArgResult)`
+  - `missing()` yields only the missing arguments as tuples of `(alias, ArgResult)`
+* Added a new attribute `is_positional` to `ArgResult`, which indicates whether the argument is a positional argument or not.
+* The `ArgResult` class now also has a `dict()` method, which returns the argument result as a dictionary.
+* Added new properties `is_tty` and `supports_color` to the `Console` class, `home` to the `Path` class and `is_win` to the `System` class.
+* Added the option to add format specifiers to the `{current}`, `{total}` and `{percentage}` placeholders in the `bar_format` and `limited_bar_format` of `ProgressBar`.
+* Finally fixed the `C901 'Console.get_args' is too complex (39)` linting error by refactoring the method into its own helper class.
+* Changed the string- and repr-representations of the `rgba` and `hsla` color objects and newly implemented it for the `Args` and `ArgResult` classes.
+* Made internal, global constants, which's values never change, into `Final` constants for better type checking.
+* The names of all internal classes and methods are all no longer prefixed with a double underscore (`__`), but a single underscore (`_`) instead.
+* Changed all methods defined as `@staticmethod` to `@classmethod` where applicable, to improve inheritance capabilities.
+* Adjusted the whole library's type hints to be way more strict and accurate, using `mypy` as static type checker.
+* Change the class-property definitions to be defined via `metaclass` and using `@property` decorators, to make them compatible with `mypyc`.
+* Unnest all the nested methods in the whole library for compatibility with `mypyc`.
+* The library is now compiled using `mypyc` when installing, which makes it run significantly faster. Benchmarking results:
+  - Simple methods like data and color operations had a speed improvement of around 50%.
+  - Complex methods like console logging had a speed improvement of up to 230%!
+
+**BREAKING CHANGES:**
+* Renamed `Data.to_str()` to `Data.render()`, since that describes its functionality better (*especially with the syntax highlighting option*).
+* Renamed the constant `ANSI.ESCAPED_CHAR` to `ANSI.CHAR_ESCAPED` for better consistency with the other constant names.
+* Removed the general `Pattern` and `Match` type aliases from the `base.types` module (*they are pointless since you should always use a specific type and not "type1 OR typeB"*).
+* Removed the `_` prefix from the param `_syntax_highlighting` in `Data.render()`, since it's no longer just for internal use.

 ## 16.12.2025 `v1.9.2`
+
 * Added a new class `LazyRegex` to the `regex` module, which is used to define regex patterns that are only compiled when they are used for the first time.
 * Removed unnecessary character escaping in the precompiled regex patterns in the `console` module.
 * Removed all the runtime type-checks that can also be checked using static type-checking tools, since you're supposed to use type checkers in modern python anyway, and to improve performance.
