Production release

Burrito

Burrito is the classic way of building Next LS, it produces a single executable that fully wraps Elixir, OTP, and your application.

Executables are output to ./burrito_out.

# produces executables for all the targets specified in the `mix.exs` file
just build-all

# produce an executable for a single target
just build-local

Traditional

You can also build Next LS as a traditional Mix release.

Contributing

This project follows Conventional Commits and will "Squash and Merge" pull requests.

This means that you don't necessarily need to write your actual commit messages with Conventional Commits, but the Pull Request title needs to, as it is used as the commit title when squashing and merging. There is a CI check to enforce this.

Conventional Commits are required to use Release Please, which is used to automate the changelog, release, and building/publishing executables.
