 Building wheels
 *************************************************
 
+Wheels are built automatically for pushes to the main branch, by the ``build_wheels`` GitHub
+Actions workflow.  Previous runs of this workflow will have the built wheels available as an

 You should be able to build Python wheels of symforce the standard ways.  We recommend using
 ``build``, i.e. running ``python3 -m build --wheel`` from the ``symforce`` directory.  By default,
 this will build a wheel that includes local dependencies on the ``skymarshal`` and ``symforce-sym``

-For SymForce releases, all of this is handled by the ``build_wheels`` GitHub Actions workflow.  This
-workflow is currently run manually on a commit, and produces a ``symforce-wheels.zip`` artifact with
-wheels (and sdists) for distribution (e.g. on PyPI).  It doesn't upload them to PyPI - to do that
