 A release is mostly a git tag of http://github.com/wallabag/wallabag, following [semantic versioning](http://semver.org).
 The last release at the time of writing is 2.0.0-alpha.2, from the v2 branch.
 
-### Steps
-- Update `wallabag.version` is up-to-date in `app/config/config.yml` if necessary
-- run composer update to make sure `composer.lock` is up-to-date
-- add and update `composer.lock`: `git add -f composer.lock && git commit -m "Added composer.lock for 2.0.0-alpha.3 release"`
-- create the tag: `git tag 2.0.0-alpha.3`
-- remove composer.lock, and commit: `git rm composer.lock && git commit -m "Removed composer.lock"`
-- push the tag: `git push origin 2.0.0-alpha.3`
-- go to http://github.com/wallabag/wallabag/releases
-- find the tag that was created in the list, click on the tag. Edit the release name / description
+### Steps to release
+
+During this documentation, we assume the release is `release-2.0.0-beta.1`.
+
+#### Files to edit
+
+- `app/config/config.yml` (`wallabag_core.version`)
+- `README.md` (`composer create-project` command)
+- `docs/en/user/installation.rst` and its translations (`composer create-project` command)
+
+#### Create release on GitHub
+
+- Run these commands to create the tag:
+
+```
+    git checkout v2
+    git pull origin v2
+    git checkout -b release-2.0.0-beta.1
+    SYMFONY_ENV=prod composer up --no-dev
+    git add --force composer.lock
+    git add README.md
+    git commit -m "Release wallabag 2.0.0-beta.1"
+    git push origin release-2.0.0-beta.1
+```
+
+- Create a new pull request with this title `DON'T MERGE Release wallabag 2.0.0-beta.1`. This pull request is used to launch builds on Travis-CI.
+- Run these commands to create the package:
+
+```
+    git clone git@github.com:wallabag/wallabag.git -b release-2.0.0-beta.1 release-2.0.0-beta.1
+    SYMFONY_ENV=prod composer up -d=release-2.0.0-beta.1 --no-dev
+    tar czf wallabag-release-2.0.0-beta.1.tar.gz --exclude="var/*" --exclude=".git" release-2.0.0-beta.1
+```
+
+- [Create the new release on GitHub](https://github.com/wallabag/wallabag/releases/new). You have to upload on this page the package.
+- Delete the `release-2.0.0-beta.1` branch and close the pull request (**DO NOT MERGE IT**).
+- Update the URL shortener (used on `wllbg.org` to generate links like `http://wllbg.org/latest-v2-package` or `http://wllbg.org/latest-v2`)
+- Update [the downloads page](https://github.com/wallabag/wallabag.org/blob/master/content/pages/download.md) on the website (MD5 sum, release date)
+- Drink a beer!
 
 ### `composer.lock`
 A release tag must contain a `composer.lock` file. It sets which dependencies were available at the time a release was done,
