+# Deployment Instructions
+
+This document describes how to build and deploy the `interactive-sort` package to PyPI.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. Install build tools:
+   ```bash
+   pip install build twine
+   ```
+
+2. Make sure you have PyPI account credentials configured:
+   - Create account at https://pypi.org/account/register/
+   - Get API token from https://pypi.org/manage/account/token/
+   - Configure credentials with `keyring` or `.pypirc` file
+
+## Building the Package
+
+1. Clean any previous builds:
+   ```bash
+   rm -rf dist/ build/ *.egg-info
+   ```
+
+2. Build the distribution files:
+   ```bash
+   python -m build
+   ```
+
+   This creates:
+   - `dist/interactive-sort-X.X.X.tar.gz` (source distribution)
+   - `dist/interactive_sort-X.X.X-py3-none-any.whl` (wheel distribution)
+
+## Testing the Build
+
+1. Install in a test environment:
+   ```bash
+   pip install dist/interactive-sort-*.whl
+   ```
+
+2. Test both commands:
+   ```bash
+   interactive-sort --help
+   is --help
+   ```
+
+3. Test functionality:
+   ```bash
+   echo -e "cherry\napple\nbanana" | interactive-sort
+   echo -e "cherry\napple\nbanana" | is
+   ```
+
+## Uploading to PyPI
+
+### Test PyPI (recommended first)
+
+1. Upload to Test PyPI:
+   ```bash
+   python -m twine upload --repository testpypi dist/*
+   ```
+
+2. Test installation from Test PyPI:
+   ```bash
+   pip install --index-url https://test.pypi.org/simple/ interactive-sort
+   ```
+
+### Production PyPI
+
+1. Upload to production PyPI:
+   ```bash
+   python -m twine upload dist/*
+   ```
+
+2. Verify installation:
+   ```bash
+   pip install interactive-sort
+   ```
+
+## Version Management
+
+Before deploying:
+
+1. Update version in `src/interactive_sort/__init__.py`
+2. Update version in `pyproject.toml` (should match)
+3. Create a git tag:
+   ```bash
+   git tag v1.0.0
+   git push origin v1.0.0
+   ```
+
+## Commands Available After Installation
+
+The package provides two equivalent commands:
+- `interactive-sort` - Full command name
+- `is` - Short alias for convenience
+
+Both commands have identical functionality and options.
