Document / implement a formalized release process

[paustint]

Description

This is a tooling feature request. I think it would be a nice addition to use tooling to aid in the package publishing and release process.

In the past, I have used release-it which makes bumping version number, publishing on npm, creating github release, and git tagging the release a really pleasant and simple process.

All of the other feature request template is N/A in this case
