 ## Release process
 
 TL;DR
 
 ```
-1. Make sure both `dev` and `main` are up-to their respective head 
-2. Checkout a release branch from `dev` branch 
-	1. update version in Cargo.toml
-	2. run `scripts/release.sh`
-	3. After script finishes, push the branch. Squash the commit if there were multiple attempts and commits.
-3. Open release PR, set merge target to `dev`. Do not delete the release branch. Rebase and merge. Make sure all tests pass.
-4. Repeat step 3 for `main`, delete release branch afterwards.
-5. Create Github release with target set to `main`. Generate release notes.
+1. Make a new branch from `dev` with a release commit, updating `Cargo.toml` version attribute and `CHANGELOG.md`. 
+2. Open release PR, set merge target to `dev`. Do not delete the release branch. Rebase and merge. Make sure all tests pass.
+3. Tag the release in `dev`: `git tag <version>` and push the tag: `git push tag <version>`
+4. Run `./scripts/docker-cargo-publish.sh` to publish the new release to `crates.io`
 ```
 
-We would like to keep `main` branch for official releases while using `dev` branch as the default upstream branch for features. Therefore ongoing development, feature work, and bug fixes will takes place on the dev branch, and only merge release tag commits to the `main` branch.
-
 To start working on a new feature or bug fix, contributors should create a new branch off of the dev branch. Once the feature or bug fix is complete, a pull request should be created to merge the changes into the dev branch. All changes to the dev branch should be reviewed by at least one other person before merging.
-
-When it's time to create a new release, we will merge the changes from the dev branch into the `main` branch using a pull request with new version tag (ex. `v0.1.0`). This pull request should be reviewed by at least one project owner before merging. Once the changes are merged into `main`, we will create a new tag for the release and use this tag to generate release notes and create a release in GitHub. To release a new version in crates.io, we update the version in Cargo.toml, utilize the tool [orhun/git-cliff](https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff) to maintain the changelog markdown by simply running the script under `scripts/release.sh` with the new version tag.
-
-```
-git tag -a vX.X.X -m "vX.X.X"
-git push --follow-tags
-```
-
-It's important to note that all changes to the `main` branch should go through pull requests and be reviewed by at least one project admin. This helps ensure that the `main` branch only contains clean releases and that any issues or bugs are caught before they are released to our users. 
-
-By following this release process, we can keep our repository organized, ensure that our releases are clean and stable, and make it easier for contributors to work on new features and bug fixes.
