Setup Changelog / Release Notes

[Betree]

Release notes are useful to track what has been delivered and when. Setting this up should be simple enough and will ensure we don't forget changes when publishing news or newsletters.

Power users may also be interested in having a clear and concrete resume of what changed in the previous releases so they have a better understanding of what we are working on.

Specifications

• Should create a tag when we do npm run deploy:production
• Should be automatically done when releasing a new version
• Should group items by type (fix, feature...)

Quite different from GitHub release note?

@flickz You mean this one? It would work, there are a lot of tools to do that and I'm not sure yet which one is the best for our case.

I'd love if we could offer a page like this: https://desktop.github.com/release-notes/
