+## Publishing a Python Script on GitHub
+
+This project already uses git. If you are asking generally “what has to happen to publish a Python script on GitHub?”, here is a concise checklist you can follow for this or any Python script.
+
+Prerequisites:
+- A GitHub account
+- Git installed locally (git --version)
+
+Basic steps (new project):
+1. Create/prepare your project directory
+   - Include: README.md, your .py files, optional LICENSE, optional requirements.txt
+2. Initialize git and make the first commit
+   - git init
+   - git add .
+   - git commit -m "Initial commit"
+   - Optionally set the default branch to main: git branch -M main
+3. Create a new, empty repository on GitHub
+   - In your browser: New repository → name it (e.g., TasmotaManager) → Create repository (do not add README if you already have one locally)
+4. Add the GitHub remote and push
+   - git remote add origin https://github.com/<your-username>/<your-repo>.git
+   - git push -u origin main
+
+If you already have a local git repo (like this one):
+- Ensure your latest work is committed: git add -A && git commit -m "Your message"
+- Optionally rename your current branch to main: git branch -M main
+- Create the GitHub repo (empty) via the web UI
+- Add remote and push: 
+  - git remote add origin https://github.com/<your-username>/<your-repo>.git
+  - git push -u origin main
+
+Recommended extras:
+- .gitignore for Python (to avoid committing virtualenvs, __pycache__, etc.)
+  - See GitHub’s Python template: https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/main/Python.gitignore
+  - Save it as .gitignore at the project root, then commit it
+- LICENSE file so others know how they can use your code (MIT, Apache-2.0, etc.)
+- requirements.txt if your script uses external packages (pip freeze > requirements.txt or hand-curate)
+- A brief Usage section in README with example commands
+
+Optional but useful:
+- Create a release tag once you reach a stable point:
+  - git tag -a v1.0.0 -m "First stable release"
+  - git push origin v1.0.0
+- Enable GitHub Actions for basic CI (tests/linters). Example starter workflow: https://github.com/actions/starter-workflows/blob/main/ci/python-package.yml
+
+That’s all that has to happen to publish a Python script on GitHub: have a local git repository, connect it to a new GitHub repository (remote), and push your commits. After that, you can collaborate, open issues/PRs, and manage releases directly on GitHub.
