+# Creating a release
+
+Only collaborators in npm for **node-addon-api** can create releases.
+If you want to be able to do releases ask one of the existing
+collaborators to add you. If necessary you can ask the build
+Working Group who manages the Node.js npm user to add you if
+there are no other active collaborators.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Before to start creating a new release check if you have installed the following
+tools:
+
+* [Changelog maker](https://www.npmjs.com/package/changelog-maker)
+
+If not please follow the instruction reported in the tool's documentation to 
+install it.
+
+## Publish new release
+
+These are the steps to follow to create a new release:
+
+* Open an issue in the **node-addon-api** repo documenting the intent to create a
+new release. Give people some time to comment or suggest PRs that should land first.
+
+* Validate all tests pass by running npm test on master.
+
+* Update the version in **package.json** appropriately.
+
+* Update the [README.md](https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-api/blob/master/README.md) 
+to show the new version as the latest.
+
+* Generate the changelog for the new version using **changelog maker** tool. From
+the route folder of the repo launch the following command:
+
+    ```bash 
+    > changelog-maker
+    ```
+* Use the output generated by **changelog maker** to pdate the [CHANGELOG.md](https://github.com/nodejs/node-addon-api/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md)
+following the style used in publishing the previous release.
+
+* Add any new contributors to the "contributors" section in the package.json
+
+* Validate all tests pass by running npm test on master.
+
+* Use **[CI](https://ci.nodejs.org/view/x%20-%20Abi%20stable%20module%20API/job/node-test-node-addon-api/)**
+to validate tests pass for latest 11, 10, 8, 6 releases (note there are still some issues on SmartOS and
+Windows in the testing).
+
+* Do a clean checkout of node-addon-api.
+
+* Login and then run `npm publish`.
+
+* Create a release in Github (look at existing releases for an example).
+
+* Validate that you can run `npm install node-addon-api` successfully
+and that the correct version is installed.
+
+* Comment on the issue opened in the first step that the release has been created
+and close the issue.
+
+* Tweet that the release has been created.
