+### Upgrade Steps
+
+Download a copy of the latest version. In the root folder you should see another folder named `wave`, you can simply replace this folder with the `wave` folder in your project.
+
+You will then need to re-autoload your dependencies by running:
+
+```php
+composer dump-autoload
+```
+
+You may also need to clear the cache by running:
+
+```php
+php artisan cache:clear
+```
+
+And you should be updated to the latest version :)

+### Theme Upgrade
+
+Upgrading the core of Wave is very simple; however, upgrading your current theme may be a bit more complicated based on the modifications you have made.
+
+Typically you will not need to upgrade your theme, it will have all base features and you can build on top of those. If there is a new feature that gets released which has corresponding views, then you may have a few files that you need to manually move into your project.
