 - `IgxGrid`, `IgxTreeGrid`, `IgxHierarchicalGrid`
     - **Behavioral Change** - Pinning columns is no longer automatically prevented when the pinning area would exceed the size of the grid.
+    - `igxGridState` directive added to make it easy for developers to save and restore the grid state. The directive exposes the `getState` and `setState` methods to save/restore the state and an `options` input property to exclude features.
 - `IgxCarousel`:
     - **Breaking Changes** -The carousel slides are no longer array, they are changed to QueryList.
     - **Behavioural change** - When slides are more than 5, a label is shown instead of the indicators. The count limit of visible indicators can be changed with the input `maximumIndicatorsCount`
