Proper Changelog about highcharts-react

[gvaartjes]

@KacperMadej I would prefer the single file, like @orangecoding suggested. If we need (not likely) a similar structure as Highcharts, we can always cut it up later.
Can you make sure a CHANGELOG.md is also added for the Angular and the Vue wrapper?

[orangecoding]

A common thing for open source repos is to either use the github release page as you mention or (and I recommend doing this) maintain a CHANGELOG.md which is a simple markup file. See the example below.

https://github.com/webpack-contrib/less-loader/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md

@gvaartjes Is there any more preferred format or should/could we add both (CHANGELOG.md and GitHub release list) for React, Angular and Vue wrappers?

[orangecoding]

@TorsteinHonsi it's a bit unusual, but I actually like it. It might however be easier for a small repo like this to maintain the changelog in a single md file.

Hi @orangecoding

Logging changes is a good feature for sure.

1. We could add info in releases list - https://github.com/highcharts/highcharts-react/releases

2. Where's definition for CHANGELOG.md? Could this be used other than by opening a GitHub page to view the list? @orangecoding

We could do 1, 2 or both, but we need more info to decide.

[TorsteinHonsi]

Just a thought - we recently created a structure for changelogs in the main highcharts repo, see https://github.com/highcharts/highcharts/tree/master/changelog/highcharts. It might be an idea to follow the same pattern, but I'll leave it to you guys to decide.

[TorsteinHonsi]

Yes, for Highcharts we have other considerations. We primarily use it as the source for generating https://www.highcharts.com/documentation/changelog.

@gvaartjes
Done for highcharts-react (https://github.com/highcharts/highcharts-react/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md)
I'll handle highcharts-angular and @Denyllon will handle highcharts-vue on Monday.
