### 4. Post-release
1. commit and push changes to the `develop` branch
- commit message in a format of: `Component release 20210705-01`
- commit message in a format of: `Component release 20211014-01`
1. add a tag
- see last tag `git describe --abbrev=0 --tags`
- add a semantic versioned tag `git tag -a v2.5.0-beta.5 -m 'Release of precompiled CSS, JS, assets'`
- add a semantic versioned tag `git tag -a v2.5.2-beta.5 -m 'Release of precompiled CSS, JS, assets'`
- Why like this?
- We do not add tags per individual component version. However, Lerna needs a named tag to see what has changed. With our method we get one tag per release bundle and avoid tag spamming in the release history.
- Trigger a deploy to the CDN (i.e. `v2.5.0`) https://assets.emblstatic.net/vf/v2.4.10/css/styles.css

In addition to [new design tokens for interactive foreground and background colours](/design-tokens/theming/#interactive), we've refreshed the [guidance on the component creation process and technicalities](/guidance/creating-components/).
Read below for details on the changes in each component.
Our next release will [bring an overhaul to the component previews](https://github.com/visual-framework/vf-core/pull/1689).
As always, you can [join the conversation on Slack](https://join.slack.com/t/visual-framework/shared_invite/enQtNDAxNzY0NDg4NTY0LWFhMjEwNGY3ZTk3NWYxNWVjOWQ1ZWE4YjViZmY1YjBkMDQxMTNlNjQ0N2ZiMTQ1ZTZiMGM4NjU5Y2E0MjM3ZGQ).
As a reminder, the rollup CSS and JS are compilations of many independently versioned components and is likely to contain changes that may disrupt the look of your site. We advise testing. Even better is to build your own CSS rollup from the npm sources, [you can find a guide here]({{ '/building' | url }}).
{#- don't forget to add the latest version to /tools/vf-component-library/src/site/_data/siteConfig.js -#}
