Day 2: April 9, 2020 - Thursday

d2: Progress

Spend a bit more time configuring and researching automated semantic releases
Added a new feature/check to bpm-counter. Verified the auto generated changelog works
Improved bpm-counter docs

d2: Thoughts

Would like to generate/include some API docs for bpm-counter but not sure what the best practises are here. If possible I prefer to avoid redundant/noisy comments for every class and method. Some packages to investigate:
- https://typedoc.org/
- https://api-extractor.com/

Day 1: April 8, 2020 - Wednesday

d1: Progress

Published my first NPM package bpm-counter using semantic-release. Releases and versioning are automatically taken care of by this GitHub action
Initialized this repository

d1: Thoughts

Some benefits of automated semantic-releases:
- Forces you to treat master as if it may only contain deployable code
- Takes the guesswork out of versioning
- Sets up your repo for easy contributing and use in the real world
It never ceases to amaze me how much tooling and infrastructure is available for open source software
