 ## Building stepcode
 
+To build **stepcode** into source and binary distributions compatible with, for example, PyPI, you can use the following command:
+
+```sh
+uv build
+```
+
 ## Building our documentation
+
+To build the documentation, you can use:
+
+```sh
+uv run src/main.py docs
+```
+
+## Using nix
+If you are a [nix](https://nixos.org/) user, you can use the `devShell` provided by the `flake.nix` to easily set up a development environment with all the necessary dependencies. To enter the development shell, run: 
+
+```sh
+nix develop .

+Creating a static book with **stepcode** is as simple as writing standard Markdown.
 
-## How to deploy
+## Cloning the Repository
+
+As **stepcode** is made in Python, you must clone the repository and install the dependencies to use it. You can do this with the following commands:
+
+```sh
+git clone
+cd stepcode
+```
+
+To easily manage dependencies and virtual environments, we recommend using [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/). To install the dependencies and run the project, use:
+
+```sh
+uv sync
+uv run src/main.py
+```
+
+## Creating Your Book
+
+To create your book, create a folder. There you must have a `stepcode.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[book]
+name = "My book"
+author = "Me of course"
+
+chapters = [
+    # here you must list all the chapters of your book, in order.
+    "blog/first-post.md",
+    "blog/second-post.md",
+
+    "cooking/first-recipe.md",
+]
+```
+
+and a index.md in the root of the folder:
+
+```markdown
+---
+title: 'My book'
+---
+
+# {{title}}
+
+Hi
+```
+
+### If you are a [nix](https://nixos.org/download/) user, the repo flake exposes a `devShell` to download all the dependencies and have a ready to use environment. You can enter it with:
+
+```sh
+nix develop .
+```
+
+Furthermore, a template book is available using:
+
+```sh
+nix flake new --template github:daniqss/stepcode#book my-book
+```
+
+## Building the Book
+
+Instructions on how to build and host your book can be found in the [README.md](https://github.com/daniqss/stepcode?tab=readme-ov-file#usage) of the repository.
+
+After using
+
+```sh
+uv run src/main.py <YOUR_FOLDER>
+```
 
 ### In Github Pages
+
+If you want to host your book on Github Pages, you can copy our [workflow](https://github.com/daniqss/stepcode/blob/main/.github/workflows/release.yaml)
+If you're using the template, it already contains a workflow that will automatically build and deploy your book to Github Pages on every push to the `main` branch. You can customize it as you wish, but make sure to update the path to the book in the workflow.
