+**This is intended for maintainers only**
+
+To create a prod/stable release, first go to https://github.com/eried/portapack-mayhem/tree/next/.github/workflows and edit the `past_version.txt` and the `version.txt` files
+
+* `past_version.txt` needs to be the current release (I.E if you are creating a new release and the old/current stable release is `v1.0.0` and you want the new version to be `v1.1.0`, then past version needs to be `v1.0.0`)
+* `version.txt` needs to be the version you want for your new release. So from the example above, that would be `v1.1.0`
+
+
+Once that is done then you need to create the draft stable release. You can do this by running the stable release pipeline https://github.com/eried/portapack-mayhem/actions/workflows/create_stable_release.yml
