+# Instructions for packaging ConStrain package locally with Poetry
+
+ConStrain can be made a pip-able Python package using `poetry`. Here's a quick guide to go about creating the package, installing it, and testing it.
+
+## Install `poetry`
+```
+curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3 -
+```
+## Build `constrain` using `poetry`
+From the root of the repository:
+```
+poetry build
+```
+## Install the package
+From the root of the repository:
+```
+pip install .\dist\constrain-0.3.1-py3-none-any.whl
+```
+## Testing the package on one of the example scripts
+```
+python .\demo\G36_demo\g36_demo_workflow_runner.py
+```
+Should output something similar to the following:
+```
+[...]
+Running state 12: [Success] ... Congratulations! the demo workflow is executed with expected results and no error!
+Done. -- [22:19:51]
+Workflow done at 22:19:51, a total of 12 states were executed in 0:00:33.789468.
+```
+## Run tests locally
+```
+poetry run pytest tests
+```
+
+# Publish ConStrain to Pypi
+
+`poetry build` then `poetry publish`
+
+# Build the Documentation locally
+
+- Install sphinx: `pip install sphinx==7.3.7`
+- Build documentation: `poetry run sphinx-build .\docs\source\ .\docs\`
+
+This will create all the `*.html` files in the `.\docs` folder.
