 # Building for release
 
+## Bump Version workflow
+
+All releases start by first bumping the package version and creating a new Git tag. We have a workflow set up to automate this.
+
+To run it, trigger a new run of the [Bump Version workflow](https://github.com/wavetermdev/thenextwave/actions/workflows/bump-version.yml). When triggering the run, you will be
+prompted to select a version bump type, either `none`, `patch`, `minor`, or `major`, and whether the version is prerelease or not. This determines how much the version number is incremented.
+See [`version.cjs`](../../version.cjs) for more details on how this works.
+
+Once the tag has been created, a new [Build Helper](#build-helper-workflow) run will be automatically queued to generate the artifacts.
+
 ## Build Helper workflow
 
-Our release builds are managed by the "Build Helper" GitHub Action, which is defined

 will check these files in our S3 bucket every hour to see if a new version is available.
 
+### Update channels
+
+We utilize update channels to roll out beta and stable releases. These are determined based on the package versioning [described above](#bump-version-workflow). Users can
+select their update channel using the `autoupdate:channel` setting in Wave. See [here](https://www.electron.build/tutorials/release-using-channels.html) for more information.

 Homebrew is automatically bumped when new artifacts are published.
