 A detailed changelog is available in the [releases](https://github.com/angular-schule/angular-cli-ghpages/releases) section.
 
-**⚠️ BREAKING CHANGE (v1)**
+**⚠️ BREAKING CHANGE (v2)**
 
-Starting with version 1 the option `--configuration` was renamed to `--build-target`.
+The internal build of Angular has changed with Angular 17.
+Unfortunately, there are now a lot of different _build targets_ and builders.
+We will try to guess the correct build target, based on the usual conventions to name them.
+The conventions are shown below, try to specify the build target more and more explicitely until the project compiles.
 
-BEFORE (_does not work_):
+In the following example, your app is called `test` and you want to deploy the `production` build.
 
-```
-ng deploy --configuration=test
+```bash
+ng deploy
 ```
 
-NOW:
+If this doesn't work, try this:
 
-```
+```bash
 ng deploy --build-target=test
 ```
 
-If you use the old syntax, you will probably receive the following error:
+If this doesn't work, try this:
+
+```bash
+ng deploy --build-target=test:build:production
+```
+
+You can also and modify your `angular.json` to archive the same:
 
-> An unhandled exception occurred: Configuration 'test' is not set in the workspace.
+```json
+{
+  "deploy": {
+    "builder": "angular-cli-ghpages:deploy",
+    "options": {
+      "buildTarget": "test:build:production"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
 
-<br>
+For your convenience, you can also use `prerenderTarget` (which adds the suffix `:prerender:production`).
+There is no support for `universalBuildTarget` or `serverTarget` because Github pages only supports static assets!
 
-**🐙 GitHub Actions** is now properly supported alongside Travis CI and CircleCi. The token `GITHUB_TOKEN` is also supported. Learn everything you need to know in the following article:
+We will then try to deploy the `dist/test/browser` folder to Github pages.
+If this is not the folder that you want to serve, then you should specify the directory explicitly with the `--dir` option.
 
-**[Everything GitHub: Continuous Integration, Deployment and Hosting for your Angular App](https://angular.schule/blog/2020-01-everything-github)**
+This new build logic is a breaking change, therefore `angular-cli-ghpages` v2 only supports Angular 17 and higher.
+For previous versions of Angular, use `angular-cli-ghpages` v1.x.

-The command includes dotfiles by default (e.g. `.htaccess` will be committed).
-With `--no-dotfiles` files starting with `.` are ignored.
+By default a `.nojekyll` file is created, because we assume you don't want to compile the build again with Jekyll.
 
-**Hint:**
-This is super useful if you want to publish a `.nojekyll` file.
-Create such a file in the root of your pages repo to bypass the Jekyll static site generator on GitHub Pages.
+**Explanation:**
+By creating such a file in the root of your pages repo, you will bypass the Jekyll static site generator on GitHub Pages.
 Static content is still delivered – even without Jekyll.
-This should only be necessary if your site uses files or directories that start with **\_underscores** since Jekyll considers these to be special resources and does not copy them to the final site.
