💡 Use a tool to fully automate the release pipeline 💡

[adriens]

Context

In Java ecosystem, JReleaser make the release process very easy yet powerful :

• Checksums
• Multiple Packaging Options
• Publish Packages
• Helps in communication : twitter, ...

The main idea would to use the same kind of tool for the release process.

Proposal

Use Goreleaser to make release process even more efficient and effortless (docker bundle creation, scoop, ...). Still the site is a .com : note sure it's an Open Source product ;-(

Thanks, @adriens. I know that @DennisDenuto and @danielhelfand have done some release automation work with goreleaser so far (imgpkg example). It's just happening in a piecewise fashion versus all at once. I don't think we have another issue to track this work so we can keep this one open regarding the full automation.
