 Here are the steps to release a beta version of this package:
 
-- Create a new branch originating the branch containing the "beta" changes. For example, if during the Meilisearch pre-release, create a branch originating `bump-meilisearch-v*.*.*`.<br>
-`vX.X.X` is the next version of the package, NOT the version of Meilisearch!
-
-```bash
-git checkout bump-meilisearch-v*.*.*
-git pull origin bump-meilisearch-v*.*.*
-git checkout -b vX.X.X-beta.0
-```
-
-- Change the version in `package.json` by `vX.X.X-beta.0` and commit it to the `vX.X.X-beta.0` branch
+- Create a new branch containing the "beta" changes with the following format `xxx-beta` where `xxx` explains the context.
+
+  For example:
+    - When implementing a beta feature, create a branch `my-feature-beta` where you implement the feature.
+      ```bash
+        git checkout -b my-feature-beta
+      ```
+    - During the Meilisearch pre-release, create a branch originating from `bump-meilisearch-v*.*.*` named `bump-meilisearch-v*.*.*-beta`. <br>
+    `v*.*.*` is the next version of the package, NOT the version of Meilisearch!
+
+      ```bash
+      git checkout bump-meilisearch-v*.*.*
+      git pull origin bump-meilisearch-v*.*.*
+      git checkout -b bump-meilisearch-v*.*.*-beta
+      ```
+
+- Change the version in `package.json` with `*.*.*-xxx-beta.0` and commit it to the `v*.*.*-beta` branch. None or multiple `-xxx`are valid. Examples:
+  - `v*.*.*-my-feature-beta.0`
+  - `v*.*.*-beta.0`
