How do I update an app based on the aurelia skeleton to the new skeleton version?

I have an application based on skeleton-esnext-webpack - so I downloaded the skeleton, copied it and then applied my changes to start building my app.

A new version of the skeleton has been released in Git.

How can I apply the new released version to my application?

I'm hoping there's an easier way than having to download the new version and then reinstall all the modules I've added and my app src.

Running npm update doesn't move the skeleton to the new release.

Any help appreciated.

When you first installed the skeleton, how did you install it (npm or git clone)? As +Fabio pointed out, npm won't update to a new repo. I believe the the exact skeleton you mentioned (skeleton-esnext-webpack) is actually part of the skeleton-navigation repo now, which further complicates it.

To use a new skeleton, you should definitely download the new skeleton (using npm or git clone) and then copy your src folder into the new one. You'll also need to compare your aurelia.json files, install any missing dependencies, and add them to the new aurelia.json manually.

If you need help in this process, feel free to ask!
