conventional-changelog automates changelog generation from conventional commit metadata. It analyzes your commit history, adheres to established conventions (like Angular or Atom), and produces a readable, standardized changelog. This tool simplifies release management, ensuring consistent documentation of changes across versions. Integrate it into your CI/CD pipeline for automatic changelog updates with each release, improving developer experience and project transparency. Customizable presets allow for tailoring to specific project needs and preferences.
