37. Semantic Versioning
Today we are going to be talking about semantic versioning. When you should do it, when you shouldn’t do it, and what the heck it is? Joining us on this episode is special guest, Kevin Thomas. Kevin is a Software Consultant at Stride Consulting. Semantic Versioning is a more rigorous system where the first number is the big breaking changes, ideally.
