FAQPage Schema
How do I automate semantic versioning for a .NET plugin across multiple project files?▼

Automated semantic versioning synchronizes version numbers across project files like VERSION, csproj, and plugin.json to ensure consistent versioning across complex plugin structures without manual file edits.

How do I generate a changelog from conventional commits for GitHub plugin releases?▼

Changelog generation parses conventional commit history to automatically create release notes and changelogs. This eliminates manual documentation overhead during the GitHub release workflow.

What is the best way to package .NET plugin release artifacts and generate checksums?▼

Packaging release artifacts and generating checksums is handled by orchestrating the release lifecycle end-to-end. This secure artifact management ensures consistent and reproducible release deployments.
