Changesets

Definitions

1. A release-management approach and popular tool that lets maintainers record versioning intent in small metadata files which are later combined into changelogs and package version bumps. It is especially common in JavaScript monorepos and multi-package projects.

   In plain English: A tool and workflow for recording release notes and version changes before publishing packages.

   Example: "The monorepo stopped shipping broken version bumps once the team adopted Changesets."
