# Create a stable Sunshine release
Pre-releases in Sunshine are created automatically on every push event to the `master` branch. These are required
to be created before making a stable release. Below are the instructions for converting a pre-release to stable.
1. Wait for the pre-release to be created.
2. Once the pre-release is created, the copr build will begin in the
[beta copr repo](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/lizardbyte/beta/).
Wait for this build to succeed before continuing. You can view the status
[here](https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/actions/workflows/ci-copr.yml?query=event%3Arelease)
3. Once the workflow mentioned in step 2 completes, it will update the GitHub release with the RPM files from the copr
build.
4. At this point, the GitHub release can be edited.
- Add any top-level release notes.
- Ensure any security fixes are mentioned first with links to the security advisories.
- Following security advisories, breaking changes should be mentioned. Be sure to mention anything the user may need
to do to ensure a smooth upgrade experience.
- Then highlight any notable new features and/or fixes.
- Lastly, reduce the automated changelog list. Things like dependency updates and ci updates can mostly be removed.
5. When saving, uncheck "pre-release" and save the release. This will make the release stable and kick off a series of
workflows, including but not limited to the following:
- Create a blog post in [LizardByte.github.io repo](https://github.com/LizardByte/LizardByte.github.io/pulls) via PR
- Merging this PR will trigger automations that send the blog post link to:
- LizardByte Discord
- r/LizardByte subreddit
- Facebook
- Update changelog in [changelog](https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/tree/changelog) branch
- Update docs on [Read The Docs](https://app.readthedocs.org/projects/sunshinestream/)
- Update official [Flathub repo](https://github.com/flathub/dev.lizardbyte.app.Sunshine/pulls) via a PR
(we have merge control)
- Update our homebrew-homebrew repo via a PR (https://github.com/LizardByte/homebrew-homebrew/pulls)
- Update our pacman-repo via a PR (https://github.com/LizardByte/pacman-repo/pulls)
- Update official
[Winget repo](https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/issues?q=is%3Apr%20is%3Aopen%20author%3ALizardByte-bot)
via a PR (we DO NOT have merge control)
- Build the new version in [stable copr repo](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/lizardbyte/stable/)
- Send release notification to Moonlight Discord server
6. X (Twitter) API is no longer free, so we must manually post the release there.
