Deployment

We use Github actions to build. And add new versions to github releases. Every time a new commit to master is pushed with a version tag.

  1. Update the version in your project's package.json file (e.g. 1.2.3)
  2. Commit that change (git commit -m"1.2.3" -m"optional message")
  3. Tag your commit (git tag 1.2.3). Make sure your tag name's format is *.*.*.
    1. Your workflow will use this tag to detect when to create a release
  4. Push your changes to GitHub (git push && git push origin v1.2.3)
