+### macOS Package Creation
+
+On macOS, create a new branch at the release tag. For example:
+``` powershell
+git checkout -b local-release-branch v6.0.0-alpha.11
+``` 
+Then run the following commands:
+``` powershell
+Import-Module ./build.psm1
+Start-PSBootstrap -Package
+Start-PSBuild -Crossgen
+Start-PSPackage
+```
+
+### Linux Package Creation
+
+To create packages for the supported Linux distros,
+you can either run `Start-PSPackage` manually on each of the Linux distros or use Docker Build.
+
+#### Manual Steps
+
+On a supported Linux distro, Ubuntu 14.04 for instance, create a new branch at the release tag. For example:
+``` powershell
+git checkout -b local-release-branch v6.0.0-alpha.11
+``` 
+Then run the following commands:
+``` powershell
+Import-Module ./build.psm1
+Start-PSBootstrap -Package
+Start-PSBuild -Crossgen
+Start-PSPackage
+```
+Repeat the steps on other supported Linux distros to generate the corresponding powershell core packages.
+
+#### Docker Build
+
+- Install Docker on Linux following [`docker/README.md`][docker-readme].
+If the Docker container cannot access internet after installation,
+you may be able to fix it in [this way][docker-network-fix].
+- In bash, run `/PowerShell/docker/launch.sh` with the release tag.
+It will start building 3 Docker images in parallel -- CentOS7, Ubuntu 14.04 and Ubuntu 16.04.
+When it's done, the created packages will be copied to "/PowerShell/docker/packages". For example:
+``` sh
+cd /PowerShell/docker
+BUILDS=nightly BRANCH=v6.0.0-alpha.11 ./launch.sh
+```
+- You can verify each package by starting a container of the corresponding Docker image.
+The created package is installed on the Docker image as the last step of building it.
+For example:
+``` sh
+docker run -it --rm microsoft/powershell-nightly:ubuntu16.04
+```

+PowerShell NuGet packages and the corresponding symbol packages will be generated at `PowerShell/nuget-artifacts` by default.
+Currently the NuGet packages published to [powershell-core feed][ps-core-feed] only contain assemblies built for Windows.
+Maintainers are working on including the assemblies built for non-Windows platforms.
