 # Release notes
 
+## 🚨📢 v0.136
+
+#### 🚨📢 BREAKING CHANGES
+
+- Component input validation was moved to a separate extension [`djc-ext-pydantic`](https://github.com/django-components/djc-ext-pydantic).
+
+    If you relied on components raising errors when inputs were invalid, you need to install `djc-ext-pydantic` and add it to extensions:
+
+    ```python
+    # settings.py
+    COMPONENTS = {
+        "extensions": [
+            "djc_ext_pydantic.PydanticExtension",
+        ],
+    }

 ```
 
-### Usage for Python <3.11
+If you don't want to validate some parts, set them to [`Any`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/typing.html#typing.Any).
+
+```python
+ButtonType = Component[
+    ButtonArgs,
+    ButtonKwargs,
+    ButtonSlots,
+    Any,
+    Any,
+    Any,
+]
+
+class Button(ButtonType):
+    ...
+```
+
+## Passing variadic args and kwargs
+
+You may have a function that accepts a variable number of args or kwargs:
+
+```py
+def get_context_data(self, *args, **kwargs):
+    ...
+```
+
+This is not supported with the typed components.
+
+As a workaround:
+
+- For a variable number of positional arguments (`*args`), set a positional argument that accepts a list of values:
+
+    ```py
+    # Tuple of one member of list of strings
+    Args = Tuple[List[str]]
+    ```
+
+- For a variable number of keyword arguments (`**kwargs`), set a keyword argument that accepts a dictionary of values:
+
+    ```py
+    class Kwargs(TypedDict):
+        variable: str
+        another: int
+        # Pass any extra keys under `extra`
+        extra: Dict[str, any]
+    ```
+
+## Handling no args or no kwargs
+
+To declare that a component accepts no args, kwargs, etc, you can use the
+[`EmptyTuple`](../../../reference/api#django_components.EmptyTuple) and
+[`EmptyDict`](../../../reference/api#django_components.EmptyDict) types:
+
+```py
+from django_components import Component, EmptyDict, EmptyTuple
+
+class Button(Component[EmptyTuple, EmptyDict, EmptyDict, EmptyDict, EmptyDict, EmptyDict]):
+    ...
+```
+
+## Runtime input validation with types
+
+!!! warning
+
+    Input validation was part of Django Components from version 0.96 to 0.135.
+
+    Since v0.136, input validation is available as a separate extension.
+
+To enable input validation, you need to install the [`djc-ext-pydantic`](https://github.com/django-components/djc-ext-pydantic) extension:
+
+```bash
+pip install djc-ext-pydantic
+```
+
+And add the extension to your project:
+
+```py
+COMPONENTS = {
+    "extensions": [
+        "djc_ext_pydantic.PydanticExtension",
+    ],
+}
+```
+
+`djc-ext-pydantic` integrates [Pydantic](https://pydantic.dev/) for input and data validation. It uses the types defined on the component's class to validate inputs of Django components.
+
+## Usage for Python <3.11
 
 On Python 3.8-3.10, use `typing_extensions`
 
@@ -83,91 +217,3 @@ from __future__ import annotations
 Moreover, on 3.10 and less, you may not be able to use `NotRequired`, and instead you will need to mark either all keys are required, or all keys as optional, using TypeDict's `total` kwarg.
 
 [See PEP-655](https://peps.python.org/pep-0655) for more info.

-## Passing additional args or kwargs
-
-You may have a function that supports any number of args or kwargs:
-
-```py
-def get_context_data(self, *args, **kwargs):
-    ...
-```
-
-This is not supported with the typed components.
-
-As a workaround:
-
-- For `*args`, set a positional argument that accepts a list of values:
-
-  ```py
-  # Tuple of one member of list of strings
-  Args = Tuple[List[str]]
-  ```
-
-- For `*kwargs`, set a keyword argument that accepts a dictionary of values:
-
-  ```py
-  class Kwargs(TypedDict):
-      variable: str
-      another: int
-      # Pass any extra keys under `extra`
-      extra: Dict[str, any]
-  ```
-
-## Handling no args or no kwargs
-
-To declare that a component accepts no Args, Kwargs, etc, you can use `EmptyTuple` and `EmptyDict` types:
-
-```py
-from django_components import Component, EmptyDict, EmptyTuple
-
-Args = EmptyTuple
-Kwargs = Data = Slots = EmptyDict
-
-class Button(Component[Args, Kwargs, Slots, Data, JsData, CssData]):
-    ...
-```
-
-## Runtime input validation with types
-
-_New in version 0.96_
-
-> NOTE: Kwargs, slots, and data validation is supported only for Python >=3.11
-
-In Python 3.11 and later, when you specify the component types, you will get also runtime validation of the inputs you pass to `Component.render` or `Component.render_to_response`.
-
-So, using the example from before, if you ignored the type errors and still ran the following code:
-
-```py
-Button.render(
-    # Error: First arg must be `int`, got `float`
-    args=(1.25, "abc"),
-    # Error: Key "another" is missing
-    kwargs={
-        "variable": "text",
-    },
-)
-```
-
-This would raise a `TypeError`:
-
-```txt
-Component 'Button' expected positional argument at index 0 to be <class 'int'>, got 1.25 of type <class 'float'>
-```
-
-In case you need to skip these errors, you can either set the faulty member to `Any`, e.g.:
-
-```py
-# Changed `int` to `Any`
-Args = Tuple[Any, str]
-```
-
-Or you can replace `Args` with `Any` altogether, to skip the validation of args:
-
-```py
-# Replaced `Args` with `Any`
-class Button(Component[Any, Kwargs, Slots, Data, JsData, CssData]):
-    ...
-```
-
-Same applies to kwargs, data, and slots.
