 Build & Release process
 -----------------------
 
-We're using [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.com) to automate the build & release process of Pico. It generates and deploys a [PHP class documentation](http://picocms.org/phpDoc/) (powered by [phpDoc](http://phpdoc.org)) for new releases and on every commit to the `master` branch. Travis also prepares new releases by generating Pico's pre-built release packages, a version badge, code statistics (powered by [cloc](https://github.com/AlDanial/cloc)) and updates our website (the [`picocms.github.io` repo](https://github.com/picocms/picocms.github.io)). Please refer to our [`.travis.yml`](https://github.com/picocms/Pico/blob/master/.travis.yml) and the [`_build` directory](https://github.com/picocms/Pico/tree/master/_build) for details.

 As insinuated above, it is important that each commit to `master` is deployable. Once development of a new Pico release is finished, trigger Pico's build & release process by pushing a new Git tag. This tag should reference a (usually empty) commit on `master`, which message should adhere to the following template:
