+# Release Process
+
+This document describes how to create a new release for the Hype project using GoReleaser.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+### 1. Install GoReleaser
+
+```bash
+# Install via Homebrew (recommended on macOS)
+brew install goreleaser
+
+# Or install via Go
+go install github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser/v2@latest
+```
+
+### 2. GitHub Token Setup
+
+You need a GitHub Personal Access Token with appropriate permissions:
+
+1. Go to GitHub → Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens → Tokens (classic)
+2. Create a token with `repo` scope (for private repos) or `public_repo` scope (for public repos)
+3. Export it locally:
+
+```bash
+export GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token_here
+```
+
+Tip: Add this to your `~/.zshrc` or `~/.bashrc` for persistence:
+
+```bash
+echo 'export GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token_here' >> ~/.zshrc
+```
+
+## Release Methods
+
+### Method 1: Manual Release (Current Process)
+
+Use this method for immediate releases or if you prefer manual control:
+
+1. **Ensure you're on main branch and up to date:**
+
+    ```bash
+    git checkout main
+    git pull origin main
+    ```
+
+2. **Verify all changes are committed:**
+
+    ```bash
+    git status
+    # Should show "nothing to commit, working tree clean"
+    ```
+
+3. **Create and push the tag:**
+
+    ```bash
+    # Replace v0.3.2 with your desired version
+    git tag v0.3.2
+    git push origin v0.3.2
+    ```
+
+4. **Run GoReleaser:**
+
+    ```bash
+    goreleaser release --clean
+    ```
+
+### Method 2: Automated Release (Recommended for Future)
+
+If you want automated releases via GitHub Actions:
+
+1. **One-time setup - Commit the release workflow:**
+
+   ```bash
+   git add .github/workflows/release.yml
+   git commit -m "Add automated release workflow"
+   git push origin main
+   ```
+
+2. **For future releases, simply push a tag:**
+
+   ```bash
+   # Replace v0.3.3 with your desired version
+   git tag v0.3.3
+   git push origin v0.3.3
+   ```
+
+    The GitHub Action will automatically run GoReleaser and create the release.
+
+## What Gets Created
+
+After a successful release, you'll have:
+
+- A new release at `https://github.com/gopherguides/hype/releases/tag/v{version}`
+- Binaries for:
+  - Linux (x86_64, ARM64)
+  - Windows (x86_64)
+  - macOS (x86_64, ARM64)
+- Automatically generated changelog
+- Downloadable archives for each platform (tar.gz for Unix, zip for Windows)
+
+## Version Numbering
+
+Follow semantic versioning (semver):
+
+- `v1.0.0` - Major version (breaking changes)
+- `v0.1.0` - Minor version (new features, backwards compatible)
+- `v0.0.1` - Patch version (bug fixes, backwards compatible)
+
+## Current Release Configuration
+
+The release is configured via `.goreleaser.yaml`:
+
+- Main binary: `./cmd/hype/main.go`
+- Builds for: Linux, Windows, macOS
+- Archives: tar.gz (Unix), zip (Windows)
+- Hooks: `go mod tidy` and `go generate ./...` before build
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### GoReleaser Command Not Found
+
+```bash
+# Reinstall GoReleaser
+brew install goreleaser
+# Or
+go install github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser/v2@latest
+```
+
+### Invalid GitHub Token
+
+```bash
+# Verify token is set
+echo $GITHUB_TOKEN
+# If empty, export it again
+export GITHUB_TOKEN=your_token_here
+```
+
+### Tag Already Exists
+
+```bash
+# Delete local tag
+git tag -d v0.3.2
+# Delete remote tag
+git push origin --delete v0.3.2
+# Recreate tag
+git tag v0.3.2
+git push origin v0.3.2
+```
+
+### Build Failures
+
+```bash
+# Test the build locally first
+goreleaser build --snapshot --clean
+```
+
+### Permission Denied
+
+Ensure your GitHub token has the correct permissions:
+
+- `public_repo` for public repositories
+- `repo` for private repositories
+
+## Quick Reference
+
+```bash
+# Complete release process (manual)
+git checkout main && git pull origin main
+git tag v0.3.2
+git push origin v0.3.2
+goreleaser release --clean
+
+# Complete release process (automated, after workflow is set up)
+git checkout main && git pull origin main
+git tag v0.3.2
+git push origin v0.3.2
+# GitHub Actions handles the rest
+```
