 We call it ephemeral because it is not physically deployed and cannot be called, but it has a formal address that is used 
 on msg.sender, when it calls other contracts.
 
+## Building
+
+This repository is used as a submodule of the [zksync-2-dev](https://github.com/matter-labs/zksync-2-dev).
+
+Compile the solidity contracts: `yarn build`
+
+Run the bootloader preprocessor: `yarn preprocess`
+
+Compile the yul contracts: `yarn hardhat run ./scripts/compile-yul.ts`
+
+## Update Process
+
+System contracts handle core functionalities and play a critical role in maintaining the integrity of our protocol. To ensure the highest level of security and reliability, these system contracts undergo an audit before any release.
+
+Here is an overview of the release process of the system contracts which is aimed to preserve agility and clarity on the order of the upgrades:
+
+### `main` branch
+
+The `main` branch contains the latest code that is ready to be deployed into production. It reflects the most stable and audited version of the protocol.
+
+### `dev` branch 
+
+The `dev` branch is for active development & the latest code changes. Whenever a new PR with system contract changes is created it should be based on the `dev` branch.
+
+### Creating a new release:
+
+Whenever a new release is planned, a new branch named `release-vX-<name>` should be created off the `dev` branch, where `X` represents the release version, and `<name>` is a short descriptive name for the release. The PR with the new release should point to either the `main` branch or to the release branch with a lower version (in case the previous branch has not been merged into `main` for some reason).
+
+Once the audit for the release branch is complete and all the fixes from the audit are applied, we need to merge the new changes into the `dev` branch. Once the release is final and merged into the `main` branch, the `main` branch should be merged back into the `dev` branch to keep it up-to-date.
+
+### Updating Unaudited Code:
+
+Since scripts, READMEs, etc., are code that is not subject to audits, these are to be merged directly into the `main` branch. The rest of the release branches as well as the `dev` branch should merge `main` to synchronize with these changes.
