## 🚀 Automated Publishing
|
||||
|
||||
This project uses GitHub Actions to automatically publish to multiple platforms when a new version tag is pushed:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Chrome Web Store** - Automatic publishing
|
||||
- **Microsoft Edge Add-ons** - Automatic publishing
|
||||
- **GitHub Releases** - Creates release with multiple download formats
|
||||
|
||||
### For Maintainers
|
||||
|
||||
To release a new version:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Create and push a new version tag
|
||||
git tag v1.2.3
|
||||
git push origin v1.2.3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The workflow will automatically:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Update `manifest.json` and `package.json` versions
|
||||
2. Create extension packages for all platforms
|
||||
3. Publish to Chrome Web Store and Edge Add-ons
|
||||
4. Create a GitHub release with downloadable files
|
||||
|
||||
See [`.github/workflows/README.md`](.github/workflows/README.md) for setup instructions.
|
||||
