Modules that need several interdependent functions before a first release is usable now have a documented pattern to follow, instead of improvising it per repo.
New: Module Bootstrap page
src/docs/Modules/Process-PSModule/module-bootstrap.mddocuments the pattern: identify the module's load-bearing core first (the conversion pivot for data modules, or the Context-backed credential store + client + first API function for integration modules, per the existing Module types archetypes), scope one long-lived integration branch to exactly that core, and open small focused PRs targeting that branch in parallel until it's coherent. Merging the integration branch intomainbecomes the module'sv1.0.0. After that, ordinary SemVer applies — new functions on the stable core are minor/patch bumps unless they break the core's own contract. Follow-up feature PRs can keep targeting the integration branch before it merges.The page is linked from the
Process-PSModulenav/index and cross-referenced fromtemplate-quickstart.mdfor modules that need this before the ordinary single-command quickstart applies.Technical Details
src/docs/Modules/Process-PSModule/module-bootstrap.md, cross-linkingModule-Types.mdandVersioning.md.src/zensical.tomlnav andProcess-PSModule/index.md.template-quickstart.md.Branching-and-Merging.mdalready cover the general framework; this page is a PSModule-specific application of it and links out for contrast rather than duplicating that content.Docs-only change, no issue required.
