GitHub Actions, combined with Semantic Release, provides a powerful solution for automating the versioning and deployment of applications while adhering to semantic versioning conventions. Semantic Release automatically determines the version number based on commit messages, following semantic versioning rules, which eliminates the need for manual version management. When a developer makes a commit or a pull request on GitHub, a GitHub Actions workflow can be triggered to run tests, analyze the code, and, if everything is in order, publish a new version to the appropriate registry.
