release-please
generates GitHub PRs for library releases based on the
conventionalcommits.org commit

Release Please can be configured (using GitHub Actions, a cron, or a step during CI/CD) to maintain a PR that represents the next release of your library.
When the candidate PR is merged, Release Please can be configured to create a GitHub Release.

This library follows Semantic Versioning.
This library is considered to be in beta. This means it is expected to be mostly stable while we work toward a general availability release; however, complete stability is not guaranteed. We will address issues and requests against beta libraries with a high priority.
