  But how semantic-release knows what part of the version it should bump? It uses the commit messages to determine the type of changes in the codebase. So that means we need to adhere to a specific commit message format. By default the semantic-release follows the Angular Commit Message Conventions, but you can change it with a config file. We'll not change it for this post because this format is widely used by the open source community.

Other things like updated logging packages MongoDB bulk insert and other smaller things are also being worked on.

  It's probably a bad idea to say "X is wrong" when you haven't done enough market research.

  OP seems to think he's invented some completely new way of doing things but i wonder if he's seen things like:

  - Mithril: https://mithril.js.org/

  - Cell: https://github.com/intercellular/cell

  - Hyperapp: https://github.com/jorgebucaran/hyperapp

  and so on. I dislike React more than anyone else for its bloated way of doing things, but there are always legitimate reasons why people use things they use. The announcement would have been more productive if he just shared the project in a humble manner.
