  3. ## Build
  4. - Change the version number of the library in both `package.json` and `bower.json`.
  5. - Open `HISTORY.md`, write down the changes, version number, and release date.
  6. - Build the library by running:
  7. npm prune
  8. npm update
  9. npm run build
  10. This generates the vis.js library in the folder `./dist`.
  11. ## Test
  12. - Test the library:
  13. npm test
  14. - Open some of the examples in your browser and visually check if it works as expected.

  19. - Create a version tag (with the new version number) and push it to github:
  20. git tag v3.1.0
  21. git push --tags
  22. ## Publish
