• Run npm start or npm ci (no --legacy-peer-deps!)
• Confirm that the install completes successfully
• Run npm run build and npm run watch and confirm that the assets build successfully
• Run npm run lint and confirm that SCSS and JS linting works
• Run npm run test and confirm that JS unit tests work (only applicable if the repo has any)
• Run npm run semantic-release --dry-run and confirm there's successful output
• Smoke test both WP admin and front-end functionality—there should be no significant changes

Approving but noting I'm not really confident in my smoke tests here. Since this is not released to our publishers yet though, gonna approve.
