+### Added
+- middleware for metrics (`OpenTelemetryMetricsMiddleware`)
+
+  Simplest example to get it up and running:
+
+  ```rust
+  // setup
+  app.with(opentelemetry_tide::OpenTelemetryMetricsMiddleware::new(None));
+  // the rest
+  ```
+
+  Note: it will respond to `/metrics` in the same app. This routes is currently hardcoded.
+  If that clashes for you, please open an issue or send me a PR with a change.
+
+- tide::Server trait extension `TideExt` to set up middlewares more conveniently:
+
+  ```rust
+  use opentelemetry_tide::TideExt;
+
+  // for tracing only
+  app.with_tracing_middleware(tracer);
+  // for metrics only
+  app.with_metrics_middleware(None);
+  // using both together
+  app.with_middlewares(tracer, None);
+  ```
+
+  If you use `.with_middlewares`, keep in mind that the order is _trace -> metrics,_
+  so that the tracing middleware can also observe and trace calls to the `/metrics` route.
+  If that is an undesired behaviour and/or you want this configurable, please open an issue
+  or send me a PR with a change.
+  Also the method names are open for debate, but I wouldn't expect people to use many extensions, or that tide would add those names anytime soon.
+
+- feature flags `trace`, `metrics`, and `full`, with "full" being the default.
+  If you want to scope it down, use
+  ```toml
+  [dependencies]
+  opentelemetry-tide = { version = "0.7", default-features = false, features = ["trace"]
+  ```
+  for example.
