Changelog

Since we follow Conventional Commits when writing commit messages, we’re able to automatically create formal “releases” of the workshop based on the commit messages. Releases in the context of workshops are simply snapshots in time of the workshop content. The releases are published to Zenodo for easier discovery, archival, and citation purposes. 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.

If you attended a workshop or used the workshop material as some point in time, you can always refer to this changelog page to find out what has been changed since you last used it.
