-News fragments is a plugin for [release-it](https://github.com/release-it/release-it) that helps you to generate a changelog file.

-Basically, you need to specify a folder to be your center of fragments that will generate a custom changelog when released. After that, you'll create files with the desired extension with quick messages inside that folder to better understand what will come up on the new version of your software.
+News Fragments is a plugin for [release-it](https://github.com/release-it/release-it) that generates a changelog from small "fragment" files. During development, contributors add one fragment file per change; at release time the fragments are compiled into a versioned changelog entry and then deleted automatically.
 
 ## Requirements
 
-- Use Node v22+
+- Node v22+
+- npm v10+
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install news-fragments
+```
 
 ## Setup
 
-In [release-it](https://github.com/release-it/release-it) config at `package.json`, create a `news-fragments` key-pair to override the default config - e.g.
+Add `news-fragments` as a plugin inside your [release-it](https://github.com/release-it/release-it) configuration in `package.json`:
 
 ```json
-"plugins": {
-  "news-fragments": {}
+{
+  "release-it": {
+    "plugins": {
+      "news-fragments": {}
+    }
+  }
 }
 ```
 
+Pass any [config options](#config-params) directly in this object to override the defaults.
+
+---
+
+## Release Workflow
+
+Follow these steps every time you need to publish a new version.
+
+### 1. Create fragment files during development
+
+For each change you want to appear in the changelog, run:
+
+```bash
+news-fragments create <fragment-type> "<description>"
+```
+
+**Available fragment types** (default): `feature`, `bugfix`, `doc`, `removal`, `misc`.
+
+Examples:
+
+```bash
+news-fragments create feature "Add dark mode support"
+news-fragments create bugfix "Fix race condition on login"
+news-fragments create misc "Update dependencies"
+```
+
+Each command creates a timestamped file inside the `fragments/` folder (e.g., `fragments/1714220400000.feature`). Commit these files together with the code changes they describe.
+
+### 2. Preview the next changelog entry
+
+Before releasing, verify what the generated changelog will look like:
+
+```bash
+news-fragments preview
+```
+
+To preview an already-released version stored in `CHANGELOG.md`:
+
+```bash
+news-fragments preview -p <version>
+# e.g. news-fragments preview -p 1.2.3
+```
+
+### 3. Run the release
+
+```bash
+npm run release
+```
+
+This command triggers `release-it`, which will:
+
+1. Run the test suite (`npm test`) as a pre-release check.
+2. Prompt you to select the next version (patch / minor / major).
+3. Burn the pending fragments into `CHANGELOG.md` under the new version header and delete the fragment files.
+4. Bump the version in `package.json`.
+5. Commit, tag, and push the release.
+
+> The burn step runs automatically via the `news-fragments` plugin — you do **not** need to run `news-fragments burn` manually when using `release-it`.
+
+### Manual burn (without release-it)
+
+If you need to compile fragments into the changelog outside of `release-it`, use:
+
+```bash
+news-fragments burn <version>
+# e.g. news-fragments burn 2.0.0
+```
+
+This writes the changelog entry for `<version>` and removes all consumed fragment files.
+
