Storybook Release Proposal v3

Third iteration of the Storybook release process (v1, v2), updated to reflect learnings through the 3.x release cycle.

What we're doing now

  • We respect semver for all releases to the best of our ability
  • release/x.y (e.g. release/3.4) branch is released as a patch every week (e.g. 3.4.X)
  • master is released on the alpha tag every week (e.g. 4.0.0-alpha.X)
  • All major/minor releases get a blog post (e.g. 3.2)

Proposed marketing updates

We ask contributors to blog about the headline feature they've contributed once the feature is considered stable. These posts will refer to the alpha release, and:

  • Allow community members to promote their work and themselves
  • Help us get feedback on the individual features while the release is still in alpha
  • Help us get more people using other alpha features
  • Make sure we have a continuous stream of publicity around Storybook
  • Make sure we have lots of content that we can refer to in the release post

Before we do a proper major minor release we:

  • Update the feature posts to refer to the full release
  • Document the release in a release post that highlights all the feature posts
