10. Create a release on GitHub. You can do this in one of two ways:
1. (Preferred) Use the [`hub` command line tool](https://hub.github.com/). You can automate adding all commit messages since the last release with the following command:
```sh
$ hub release create -d -m "<newversion>" -m "$(git log `git describe --tags --abbrev=0 HEAD^`..HEAD --oneline)" <newversion>`
```
Note that this creates a draft release, which you can then edit on GitHub. This allows you to create release notes from the list of commit messages, but then edit these notes as you wish.
2. [Draft a new release on Github](https://github.com/processing/p5.js-web-editor/releases/new).
Travis CI will automatically deploy the release to production, as well as push a production tagged Docker image to DockerHub. Travis CI will automatically deploy the release to production, as well as push a production tagged Docker image to DockerHub.
