+# Release Process
+
+Releases in this repo are mostly automated using [release-plan](https://github.com/embroider-build/release-plan/). Once you label all your PRs correctly (see below) you will have an automatically generated PR that updates your CHANGELOG.md file and a `.release-plan.json` that is used prepare the release once the PR is merged.
+
+## Preparation
+
+Since the majority of the actual release process is automated, the remaining tasks before releasing are: 
+
+-  correctly labeling **all** pull requests that have been merged since the last release
+-  updating pull request titles so they make sense to our users
+
+Some great information on why this is important can be found at [keepachangelog.com](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/), but the overall
+guiding principle here is that changelogs are for humans, not machines.
+
+When reviewing merged PR's the labels to be used are:
+
+* breaking - Used when the PR is considered a breaking change.
+* enhancement - Used when the PR adds a new feature or enhancement.
+* bug - Used when the PR fixes a bug included in a previous release.
+* documentation - Used when the PR adds or updates documentation.
+* internal - Internal changes or things that don't fit in any other category.
+
+**Note:** `release-plan` requires that **all** PRs are labeled. If a PR doesn't fit in a category it's fine to label it as `internal`
+
+## Release
+
+Once the prep work is completed, the actual release is straight forward: you just need to merge the open [Plan Release](https://github.com/typed-ember/glint/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aopen+%22Prepare+Release%22+in%3Atitle) PR
