vibe versioning 10000

because sometimes you just need to vibe with your version numbers ✨

summary

given a version number n where n is a positive integer:

start with 10000
when making changes, let the inner thought guide your version number
big changes? add thousands (e.g., 10000 → 20000)
smaller changes? add hundreds or tens (e.g., 20000 → 20100 or 20010)
trust your intuition, the number should feel right

examples

minor adjustment:

20000 → 20010
small tweaks that slightly shift the vibe

medium change:

40010 → 40500
when you've made some cool updates but kept the same energy

major change:

70500 → 80000
when the change feels like it deserves a whole new bump

massive evolution:

92540 → 100000
when your project hits that next level and you're feeling those six-figure 💵 vibes

philosophy

vibe versioning embraces the intuitive nature of software development. instead of rigid rules, it encourages developers to trust their feelings about the significance of changes. if it feels like a big change, make it a big number change. if it's just a small tweak, a small number bump will do.

🌟 tip: don't overthink it! if the version number feels right, it probably is. trust your developer instincts.

faq

how do i know which number to choose?

listen to your inner tinkerer. if the change feels significant enough to warrant jumping from 10000 to 20000, do it. if it feels more like a 10100 kind of change, that's cool too.

is there a maximum version number?

nope! the sky's the limit. as long as it's a positive integer and gives off the right vibe, you're good to go.

what if i'm not sure about the vibe?

take a moment. look at your changes. how do they feel? that first instinct is usually right. remember, there's no wrong answer as long as the number goes up!
