+# Building Custom Export Templates
+
+## Summary
+
+This document outlines how to build minimized export templates for Godots. It assumes you have read and understand the basics of [building from source](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/contributing/development/compiling/index.html) and [optimizing a build for size](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/contributing/development/compiling/optimizing_for_size.html). Each template must be built from the associated platform.
+
+## Building
+
+First, the Godot git repository must be synced the the tag matching the version used by Godots.
+
+For example:
+
+```sh
+git checkout tags/4.2.2-stable
+```
+
+Then you can use `scons` to build templates using Godots' `{platform}-custom.py` files.
+
+```sh
+scons profile=path/to/{platform}-custom.py platform={platform} target=template_release
+```
+
+The generated templates will be in the `bin` directory and can be copied over to the `release_templates` directory in the Godots project. The process can be repeated for `template_debug`.
+
+**NOTE:** MacOS has [additonal steps to follow](https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/contributing/development/compiling/compiling_for_macos.html#building-export-templates) to attain the proper files and architecture support.
+
+## Usage
+
+The `export_presets.cfg` file is pre-configured to use these templates. You can verify they have not changed by viewing the custom template fields in the export window. **If the project's engine version ever changes, the templates need to be rebuilt.**
