 # Poetry Python 🐍 Project Template
 This repository is a template for a python 🐍 project using the poetry container. The intent is to do all the basic lifting for a python project so that people can hit the ground running with their ideas.
 
+### To make this project your own
+1. Create a new repository, [using this one as a template](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/creating-and-managing-repositories/creating-a-repository-from-a-template).
+2. Change the `project` folder name to the kebab-case name of your project.
+3. Update the `BASE_DIR` variable value in the `Makefile` with the kebab-case name of your project.
+4. Update the information in the `pyproject.toml` file with your project's and your personal information.
+5. Update the information in the `CODEOWNERS` file so that it uses your GitHub ID and the kebab-case name of your project folder.
