+# Windows
+
+An executable can only be made on a Windows host because the PyInstaller tool (https://www.pyinstaller.org/) does not support cross-compilation.
+
+1.) Install Python v3.9.x from https://www.python.org/.  To make life easier, check the option to add Python to the PATH environment variable.
+
+2.) Using pip, install pyinstaller and colorama:
+
+```
+    pip install pyinstaller colorama
+```
+
+3.) Install Cygwin (https://www.cygwin.com/).
+
+4.) Create the executable with:
+
+```
+    $ ./build_windows_executable.sh
+```
+
+
+# PyPI
+
+To create package and upload to test server:
+
+```
+    $ sudo apt install python3-virtualenv
+    $ make -f Makefile.pypi
+    $ make -f Makefile.pypi uploadtest
+```
+
+To download from test server and verify:
+
+```
+    $ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 /tmp/pypi_test
+    $ cd /tmp/pypi_test; source bin/activate
+    $ pip3 install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple ssh-audit
+```
+
+To upload to production server (hint: use username '\_\_token\_\_' and API token):
+
+```
+    $ make -f Makefile.pypi uploadprod
+```
+
+To download from production server and verify:
+
+```
+    $ virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 /tmp/pypi_prod
+    $ cd /tmp/pypi_prod; source bin/activate
+    $ pip3 install ssh-audit
+```
+
+# Snap
+
+To create the snap package, run a fully-updated Ubuntu Server 20.04 VM.
+
+Install pre-requisites with:
+
+```
+    $ sudo apt install make snapcraft
+    $ sudo snap install review-tools lxd
+```
+
+Initialize LXD (leave all options default):
+
+```
+    $ sudo lxd init
+```
+
+Bump the version number in snapcraft.yaml.  Then run:
+
+```
+    $ make -f Makefile.snap
+```
+
+Upload the snap with:
+
+```
+    $ snapcraft login
+    $ snapcraft upload --release=stable ssh-audit_*.snap
+```
+
+
+# Docker
+
+Build image with:
+
+```
+    $ make -f Makefile.docker
+```
+
+Then upload it to Dockerhub with:
+
+```
+    $ make -f Makefile.docker upload
+```
