@pavish #3198 might be relevant, instead of creating a draft release it creates and uploads static assets once a release is created/edited.

@Anish9901

instead of creating a draft release it creates and uploads static assets once a release is created/edited.

The current plan is to automate creating a draft release with the frontend static assets when a tag is created, when a release branch is cut. Refer this mail thread.

This introduces changes to our release process. I will raise a separate PR for it on the wiki repo.

@pavish I'm a little confused about the workflow here. You said:

This introduces changes to our release process. I will raise a separate PR for it on the wiki repo.

I think that once I read that PR I'll either be satisfied or I'll have some more specific questions to ask. So I'm going to hold off on reviewing this until I can read the wiki PR in conjunction.

[Anish9901]

I don't see any releases on the fork you linked @pavish, I think it'd be helpful if you could also link the asset in this PR.

@Anish9901 Draft releases aren't visible. I published it, here's how it looks: https://github.com/pavish/mathesar/releases/tag/0.1.6
