Changelogen is a TypeScript CLI tool that generates beautiful Markdown changelogs from Conventional Commits in a git repository. It can also bump package versions, create git commits and tags, and publish packages to npm.

Use cases

• generate a changelog from conventional commits
• bump package. version and update CHANGELOG.md
• create a release commit and git tag automatically
• publish a package to npm with a version suffix
• generate canary releases with date and commit hash suffixes
• list contributors in release notes

When to choose

• you follow conventional commits and want automated changelog generation
• you want a lightweight all-in-one version bump, tag, and publish CLI
• you need canary or prerelease versioning with suffixes

When to avoid

• you don't use conventional commits or git tags
• you need fully customizable changelog templates beyond what changelogen offers
• you use a language ecosystem without package.
