Upgrading JTBDOS

As JTBDOS evolves, you may want to stay up to date with the latest changes. This can be difficult to do manually, so we’ve created a script to help you.
Terminal
npx JTBDOS@latest update
This will run our update script, which will guide you through the process of updating your project. 
┌  Let's update your JTBDOS project!
│
│
◆  Select a version to update to:
│  ● v3.2.15
│  ○ v3.2.14
│  ○ v3.2.13
│  ○ v3.2.12
│  ○ v3.2.11
└
This will clone the latest version of JTBDOS into a temporary directory, apply the updates, and then copy the files over to your project. From here, you can commit the changes and push them to your repository.
Because JTBDOS is a boilerplate and not a library, you’ll likely need to manually merge the changes you’ve made with the changes from the update.

​
Upgrading dependencies

You can upgrade all the dependencies in all your package.json files and installs the new versions with the bump-deps command:
Terminal
pnpm bump-deps
This will update all the dependencies in your package.json files and install the new versions.
You should run a pnpm build after running bump-deps to ensure the project builds correctly. You should also run pnpm dev and ensure the project runs correctly in runtime.

​
Upgrading shadcn/ui components

You can upgrade all the shadcn/ui components in the Design System package with the bump-ui command:
Terminal
pnpm bump-ui
This will update all the shadcn/ui components, as well as the relevant dependencies in the Design System’s package.json file.
This will override all customization you’ve made to the components. To avoid this happening, we recommend proxying the components into a new folder, such as @repo/design-system/components.
The shadcn CLI will likely make some unwanted changes to your shared Tailwind config file and global CSS. Make sure you review changes before committing them.
