-## Versioning & Releasing
+### Versioning and Releasing
 
-> TL;DR: Commits prefixed with `fix:` and `feat:` will trigger patch and minor releases when merged to `main`. Read on for more details...
+This repo is configured to use `semantic-release`. Commits prefixed with `fix:` and `feat:` will trigger patch and minor releases when merged to `main`.
 
-The [semantic-release GitHub Action](https://github.com/BrightspaceUI/actions/tree/main/semantic-release) is called from the `release.yml` GitHub Action workflow to handle version changes and releasing.
-
-### Version Changes
-
-All version changes should obey [semantic versioning](https://semver.org/) rules:
-1. **MAJOR** version when you make incompatible API changes,
-2. **MINOR** version when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner, and
-3. **PATCH** version when you make backwards compatible bug fixes.
-
-The next version number will be determined from the commit messages since the previous release. Our semantic-release configuration uses the [Angular convention](https://github.com/conventional-changelog/conventional-changelog/tree/master/packages/conventional-changelog-angular) when analyzing commits:
-* Commits which are prefixed with `fix:` or `perf:` will trigger a `patch` release. Example: `fix: validate input before using`
-* Commits which are prefixed with `feat:` will trigger a `minor` release. Example: `feat: add toggle() method`
-* To trigger a MAJOR release, include `BREAKING CHANGE:` with a space or two newlines in the footer of the commit message
-* Other suggested prefixes which will **NOT** trigger a release: `build:`, `ci:`, `docs:`, `style:`, `refactor:` and `test:`. Example: `docs: adding README for new component`
-
-To revert a change, add the `revert:` prefix to the original commit message. This will cause the reverted change to be omitted from the release notes. Example: `revert: fix: validate input before using`.
-
-### Releases
-
-When a release is triggered, it will:
-* Update the version in `package.json`
-* Tag the commit
-* Create a GitHub release (including release notes)
-* Deploy a new package to NPM
-
-### Releasing from Maintenance Branches
-
-Occasionally you'll want to backport a feature or bug fix to an older release. `semantic-release` refers to these as [maintenance branches](https://semantic-release.gitbook.io/semantic-release/usage/workflow-configuration#maintenance-branches).
-
-Maintenance branch names should be of the form: `+([0-9])?(.{+([0-9]),x}).x`.
-
-Regular expressions are complicated, but this essentially means branch names should look like:
-* `1.15.x` for patch releases on top of the `1.15` release (after version `1.16` exists)
-* `2.x` for feature releases on top of the `2` release (after version `3` exists)
+To learn how to create major releases and release from maintenance branches, refer to the [semantic-release GitHub Action](https://github.com/BrightspaceUI/actions/tree/main/semantic-release) documentation.
