## Releases

As a distribution and storage mechanism, we propose using GitHub releases. The releases would contain compressed files with the source code of the feature or template. Included with the release the corresponding metadata file would be either **devcontainer-feature.json**, **devcontainer-template.json** or **devcontainer-collection.json**.

We've decided to have a single devcontainer-collection.json file that contains top level attributes for features and templates.

We should note, this file will be auto-generated from the contents in the repo (from the devcontainers/action GitHub action, or other spec-compliant tooling)
