+# updating
+
+the enhancer is still a young project, so it's growing quickly. this means a lot of stuff is changing internally
+\- and, sometimes, externally.
+
+previously (<= v0.7.0), the enhancer was a python script with a couple of resource files, and if you
+wanted to customise things you had to go in and edit those files. in v0.8.0 there has been a complete
+rewrite and overhaul: now this is a program that makes use of a number of modules and a graphical menu.
+
+## installation dependencies
+
+previously, python and the node.js `asar` package were both required.
+node.js is the only current requirement of the enhancer.
+
+- python is no longer a dependency: keep it, get rid of it - up to you.
+- the package installs asar itself in a more scoped environment: if you're confident with
+  the command line, you can remove the package with `npm remove -g asar`. otherwise, it
+  won't do any damage to just leave it.
+
+## keeping the files
+
+enhancement is done fully from the command prompt.
+by default, there are no files for you to worry about.
+
+you can delete the folder the old version of the enhancer is kept in.
+(though you may want to keep the `user.css` file: see below.)
+
+## user.css styling
+
+when you first load the enhancer, there's no single file you can edit to see instant changes.
+instead, the "custom inserts" module is used: you can use it to pick any javascript or css file anywhere
+on your computer and include it every time you load up notion.
+
+most of the same css snippets will work, but some (e.g. preview page width) have been moved to the new variable
+system, plus new ones have been found. it's a good idea to check what you have against the [tweaks](TWEAKS.md)
+page and the [css theming documentation](DOCUMENTATION.md#theming).
+
+## configuration
+
+"what happened to the tray options?"
+
+"how can I set a custom window visibility toggle hotkey?"
+
+these options and more have been moved to the graphical menu, which can be opened from the
+tray or with `CMD/CTRL+E` (while the notion app is focused).
