Releases

We push a tag <package-name>-canary.n to GitHub, and CI will build and publish a draft release for the package. We auto-generate a changelog with GitHub, and publish a pre-release.

You can find all the latest releases here.

We will support package-level changelogs and semantic versioning in the future, but during the rapid development phase we don’t want to waste time on that.
