+## Release a new version in npm registry
+
+There is a Github action (pipeline) that automatically releases in npm whenever a release is created.
+To create a release, previously you need to ensure the version is changed in packages.json and then create a tag in the repository. These are the steps:
+
+1. Get the latest `master`
+2. Edit `packages.json` and increase the version number and save to origin/master.  
+    ```bash
+      # After editing packages.json
+      git commit -m "bump version x.y.z"
+      git push origin master
+      ```
+3.  Create a tag and push it to master:
+    ```bash
+      git tag releases/vX.Y.Z  # where X.Y.Z is a semver number such as 1.6.9
+      git push origin tags
+    ```
+4. Then in the GitHub web interface create the release. The action will be automatically triggered.
