Installation

Running a local version of Multi App Manager

While there are other ways of running a local version of an NPM module, such as using NPM link, this is the flow that is guarenteed to work.

Creating a local build of Multi App Manager

Make changes to Multi App Manager, then run npm run archive
This will build the project and create a TGZ archive file, which is what you will use to include Multi App Manager in your local project
Copy the path to the TGZ file that was just created (right-click on the file and select "Copy Path")

Installing the local version of Multi App Manager in your project

In your own project, install the local version by running npm i "<path-to-archive-file>"
For example:
```
npm i "C:\Users\<user>\pluto-multi-app-manager\plutovr-multi-app-manager-0.8.2.tgz"
```
If you already have a remote version of @plutovr/multi-app-manager installed, this will replace it with the local version.

Anytime you make changes to Multi App Manager, you will have to go through these steps again (archiving and then installing).

If you have the local version installed already, it's sufficient to run npm update @plutovr/multi-app-manager after archiving, as this will update to the newer archive file.

Publishing new package and release versions

Checkout main (which should already have merged any changes for the new version)
Use npm version version-number-or-semantic-level to add a new commit and tag with the new version (e.g. npm version v0.10.0 or npm version patch)
npm run archive
npm publish
git push --tags
Go to https://github.com/PlutoVR/pluto-multi-app-manager/tags
Click the tag that you just pushed
Click the "Create release from tag" button in the upper right
In the description, add relevant notes and an npm link to the just-published version (can find this at https://www.npmjs.com/package/@plutovr/multi-app-manager under the versions tab)
Click the "Publish release" button
