+### Release 21.08
+
+- Docker Hub has removed auto-builds from free plans since 2021-07-26, therefore
+  - **if you stay on the free plan**, then
+    - you can still build the images locally and then push them to Docker Hub
+      - pushing to Docker Hub is optional
+      - just follow the added file `local-building-example.md`
+      - you can use the helper utility `builder.sh`
+  - regularity of updates of images on Docker Hub cannot be guaranteed any more
+
 ### Release 21.04
 
 - TigerVNC from [Release Mirror on accetto/tigervnc][accetto-tigervnc-release-mirror] because **Bintray** is closing on 2021-05-01

+
+Docker Hub has removed auto-building from free plans since 2021-07-26.
+
+This page describes how to build the image locally and optionally push it to Docker Hub.
+
+If you just want to build the image locally without publishing it on Docker Hub, then you can use the `one-liners` shown at the top of the Dockerfile.
+
+There is a helper utility `builder.sh`, which supports executing the whole building pipeline locally, including pushing the image to Docker Hub.
+
+## Preparation
+
+Open a terminal windows and change the current directory to the root of the project (where the license file is).
+
+There is an example secrets file in the `utils` subdirectory of the project. Copy and modify it and then source it in the terminal:
+
+```bash
+### make a copy and then modify it
+cp utils/example-secrets.rc secrets.rc
+
+### source the secrets
+source ./secrets.rc
+```
+
+## Building pipeline
+
+The full building pipeline consists of the following four hook scripts and one utility script:
+
+- `build`
+- `test`
+- `push`
+- `util-refresh-readme.sh`
+
+The order of executing the scripts is important.
+
+The commands in the following example would build and publish the image `accetto/ubuntu-vnc-xfce:latest`.
+
+The helper utility `builder.sh` will be used. Alternatively you can also use the hook scripts directly.
+
+### Step 1: `build`
+
+```bash
+./builder.sh latest build
+```
+
+This command builds a new local image.
+
+### Step 2: `test`
+
+```bash
+./builder.sh latest test
+```
+
+This command checks if the version sticker has changed. This step is optional and you can skip it if you are not interested in the version sticker value.
+
+Otherwise, if the version sticker has changed since the last project update, then adjust the version sticker variables in the `env` hook script and repeat the steps 1 and 2.
+
+Also update the `README` file using the helper utility `util-refresh-readme.sh`.
+
+### Step 3: `push`
+
+```bash
+./builder.sh latest push
+```
+
+This command will push the new image to Docker Hub.
+
+Note that currently you have to update the `README` file on Docker Hub yourself. You can do it in edit mode by simple copy-and-paste from the local file, which you've already updated by the helper utility described above.
+
+### All steps at once
+
+Alternatively you can execute the whole building pipeline using the `all` command:
+
+```bash
+./builder.sh latest all
+```
+
+Note that this command doesn't update the `README` file. You still have to do it yourself using the helper utility described above.
