history
Project history and usage
bumpp is an interactive JavaScript/TypeScript version-bump CLI for projects that want to bump package versions, commit, tag, push, and optionally run commands in one prompt-driven flow.
Project history
The README states that bumpp was forked from `version-bump-prompt` and renamed so users could run it directly as `npx bumpp`. The fork added confirmation before bumping, default commit/tag/push behavior, monorepo recursion, command execution hooks, Conventional Commits defaults, ESM and CJS bundles, and `bump.config.ts` support.
npm registry metadata shows the package appearing in July 2020 and continuing through major releases into 2026. The GitHub release feed shows v11.0.0 in March 2026 raising the Node requirement and v11.1.0 in May 2026 fixing CLI and Git push behavior.
Adoption history
bumpp gained traction in the Node and TypeScript tooling world because it fits the `npx`/`pnpm dlx` style of one-off release commands. It is especially convenient for package.json-based libraries and monorepos that want an interactive release bump without a larger release-management platform.
How it is used
Developers usually run `bumpp` in a repository, choose the next version interactively, and let the tool update files, make a Git commit, create a tag, push changes, and run configured commands. Projects that need repeatable behavior can define options in `bump.config.ts`.
Why package nerds care
bumpp is a package-nerd tool because it automates the tiny but important ritual around npm releases: editing package metadata, producing Git tags, and making release commits predictable. Its design reflects modern JavaScript preferences for interactive CLIs, TypeScript config files, and monorepo-aware workflows.
