+# Python Deployment
+
+These scripts assist with building Python packages and pushing them to
+[PyPI (the Python Package Index)](https://pypi.org/). See also
+
+* The Python Packaging User Guide: <https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/>
+
+## Overview
+
+See comments in scripts for canonical usage. This page includes additional
+notes.
+
+### Package building
+
+These scripts build packages:
+
+* [`/shark-ai/build_tools/build_linux_package.sh`](/shark-ai/build_tools/build_linux_package.sh)
+* [`/sharktank/build_tools/build_linux_package.sh`](/sharktank/build_tools/build_linux_package.sh)
+* [`/shortfin/build_tools/build_linux_package.sh`](/shortfin/build_tools/build_linux_package.sh)
+
+### Version management
+
+These scripts handle versioning across packages, including considerations like
+major, minor, and patch levels (`X.Y.Z`), as well as suffixes like
+`rc20241107`:
+
+* [`compute_common_version.py`](./compute_common_version.py)
+* [`compute_local_version.py`](./compute_local_version.py)
+* [`promote_whl_from_rc_to_final.py`](./promote_whl_from_rc_to_final.py)
+* [`write_requirements.py`](./write_requirements.py)
+
+### PyPI deployment
+
+These scripts handle promoting nightly releases packages to stable and pushing
+to PyPI:
+
+* [`promote_whl_from_rc_to_final.py`](./promote_whl_from_rc_to_final.py)
+* [`pypi_deploy.sh`](./pypi_deploy.sh)
+
+Both of these scripts expect to have the dependencies from
+[`requirements-pypi-deploy.txt`](./requirements-pypi-deploy.txt) installed.
+This can be easily managed by using a Python virtual environment:
+
+```bash
+python -m venv .venv
+source .venv/bin/activate
+python -m pip install -r ./requirements-pypi-deploy.txt
+```

+# Prerequisites:
+#   * You will need to have PyPI credentials set up. See
+#     https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/tutorials/packaging-projects/#uploading-the-distribution-archives
+#   * Install requirements, e.g. in a Python virtual environment (venv):
+#     `pip install -r requirements-pypi-deploy.txt`
+#   * Install python3.13t and install pip. On Ubuntu:
+#     ```bash
+#     sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes
+#     sudo apt-get update
+#     sudo apt-get install python3.13-nogil

+#     ```
+#   * Choose a release candidate to promote from
