What is SemVer Version Bumper?
SemVer Version Bumper increments major, minor, or patch components and can attach prerelease and build metadata. It supports release preparation when a project follows Semantic Versioning and needs a correctly formatted next identifier without editing each numeric component manually.
How to use SemVer Version Bumper
Enter the current semantic version, choose the increment type, and generate the next major, minor, patch, or prerelease version.
When is SemVer Version Bumper useful?
SemVer Version Bumper is useful when preparing releases, automating version updates, or checking how Semantic Versioning changes across release types.
Example
A practical example is bumping version 2.4.7 to the next minor release or creating a prerelease identifier.
Practical notes
Choose the bump from public compatibility, not from the amount of work completed. Breaking API changes require a major release, backward-compatible features a minor release, and compatible fixes a patch; verify special rules while the major version is zero.
