Create a new release on Github, document your changes, and name it for example Release 1.0.0

CSS files

When a new version is pushed on the main branch, this will trigger the generation of a a new CSS file on the CDN.

If the version is 1.0.0, the CSS file will be delivered at https://liip-bund-ds.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/v1.0.0/main.css.

The latest version of the CSS file will be available at https://liip-bund-ds.fra1.digitaloceanspaces.com/latest/main.css.

Run visual regression testing

# run Chromatic
$ git checkout main
$ npm run test

This will run the test and provide an URL pointing to the Chromatic app. You can learn more about the Chromatic tool at Chromatic's website.

If you want to run the test before merging your branches into the main branch, you can first check out stage, merge your modifications onto this branch, and then run the regression visual test.
