From Changelog to NPM

Create tokens in your account, include the watcher in your .gitlab-ci.yml and :rocket:.

Just follow the Keep a Changelog format, and add a new release in your CHANGELOG.md. The watcher will update the version in your package(-lock).json, create a tag, a release and publish your package to NPM.

  - Release

That's All Folks!

Now edit your CHANGELOG.md and add a new Release following the Keep a Changelog format.
