News

Since we follow Conventional Commits when writing commit messages, we're able to automatically create formal "releases" of the website based on the commit messages. Releases in the context of websites are simply snapshots in time of the website content. We use Commitizen to be able to automatically create these releases, which uses SemVar as the version numbering scheme.

Because releases are created based on commit messages, we release quite often, sometimes several times in a day. This also means that any individual release will not have many changes within it. Below is a list of the releases we've made so far, along with what was changed within each release.
