+Aztec is in full-speed development. Literally every version breaks compatibility with the previous ones. This page attempts to target errors and difficulties you might encounter when upgrading, and how to resolve them.
+
+## 0.17.0
+
+### [js] New `@aztec/accounts` package
+
+Before: 
+
+```js
+import { getSchnorrAccount } from "@aztec/aztec.js" // previously you would get the default accounts from the `aztec.js` package:
+```
+
+Now, import them from the new package `@aztec/accounts`
+
+```js
+import { getSchnorrAccount } from "@aztec/accounts" 
+```
+
+### Typed Addresses
+Address fields in Aztec.nr now is of type `AztecAddress` as opposed to `Field`
+
+Before:
+```rust
+unconstrained fn compute_note_hash_and_nullifier(contract_address: Field, nonce: Field, storage_slot: Field, serialized_note: [Field; VALUE_NOTE_LEN]) -> [Field; 4] {
+        let note_header = NoteHeader::new(_address, nonce, storage_slot);
+        ...
+```
+
+Now:
+```rust
+unconstrained fn compute_note_hash_and_nullifier(
+        contract_address: AztecAddress,
+        nonce: Field,
+        storage_slot: Field,
+        serialized_note: [Field; VALUE_NOTE_LEN]
+    ) -> pub [Field; 4] {
+        let note_header = NoteHeader::new(contract_address, nonce, storage_slot);
+```
+
+Similarly, there are changes when using aztec.js to call functions.
+
+To parse a `AztecAddress` to BigInt, use `.inner`
+Before:
+```js
+const tokenBigInt = await bridge.methods.token().view()
+```
+
+Now:
+```js
+const tokenBigInt = (await bridge.methods.token().view()).inner
+```
+
+### [Aztec.nr] Add `protocol_types` to Nargo.toml
+```toml
+aztec = { git="https://github.com/AztecProtocol/aztec-packages/", tag="#include_aztec_version", directory="yarn-project/aztec-nr/aztec" }
+protocol_types = { git="https://github.com/AztecProtocol/aztec-packages/", tag="#include_aztec_version", directory="yarn-project/noir-protocol-circuits/src/crates/types"}
+```
+
+### [Aztec.nr] moving compute_address func to AztecAddress
+Before:
+```rust
+let calculated_address = compute_address(pub_key_x, pub_key_y, partial_address);
+```
+
+Now:
+```rust
+let calculated_address = AztecAddress::compute(pub_key_x, pub_key_y, partial_address);
+```
+
+### [Aztec.nr] moving `compute_selector` to FunctionSelector
+Before:
+```rust
+let selector = compute_selector("_initialize((Field))");
+```
+
+Now:
+```rust
+let selector = FunctionSelector::from_signature("_initialize((Field))");
+```
+
+### [js] Importing contracts in JS
+
+Contracts are now imported from a file with the type's name.
+
+Before:
+```js
+import { TokenContract } from "@aztec/noir-contracts/types";
+```
+
+Now:
+```js
+import { TokenContract } from "@aztec/noir-contracts/Token";
+```
+
+### [Aztec.nr] Aztec example contracts location change in Nargo.toml
+
+Aztec contracts are now moved outside of the `src` folder, so you need to update your imports.
+
+Before:
+```rust
+easy_private_token_contract = {git = "https://github.com/AztecProtocol/aztec-packages/", tag ="v0.16.9", directory = "yarn-project/noir-contracts/src/contracts/easy_private_token_contract"}
+```
+
+Now, just remove the `src` folder,:
+
+```rust
+easy_private_token_contract = {git = "https://github.com/AztecProtocol/aztec-packages/", tag ="v0.17.0", directory = "yarn-project/noir-contracts/contracts/easy_private_token_contract"}
+```
