 ### CI and releases
 
 - Build each branch in a matrix job; upload separate JARs with correct `gameVersions` on Modrinth.
-- For 1.21.x, try a single artifact targeting `~1.21` if testing confirms compatibility.
-- Tag the repo once (e.g., `vX.Y.Z`); attach artifacts per branch/version line.
+- Each branch builds its own JAR with version-specific naming (e.g., `tyms-1.21.4-1.1.0.jar`)

 ### IDE tips
 
 - Open each worktree as a separate project window.
 - Assign run configurations per project (fast switching between versions).
-- Use clear log tags (e.g., `[TYMS-121]`, `[TYMS-120]`) to spot version-specific issues quickly.

+
+### Building multiple versions simultaneously
+
+With the updated `build.gradle`, each branch now creates uniquely named JARs:
+
+```bash
+# Build all versions in parallel
+git checkout 1.21.7 && ./gradlew build &  # Creates tyms-1.21.7-1.1.0.jar
+git checkout 1.21.4 && ./gradlew build &  # Creates tyms-1.21.4-1.1.0.jar
+git checkout 1.21   && ./gradlew build &  # Creates tyms-1.21-1.1.0.jar
+git checkout 1.21.1 && ./gradlew build &  # Creates tyms-1.21.1-1.1.0.jar
+wait
+```
+
+All JARs will be available in `build/libs/` without overwriting each other.
 
 ### FAQ
 
 - "Can I use the same branch in two worktrees?" — No.
 - "Can I convert an existing folder into a worktree?" — Create a new worktree and move files if needed; direct conversion isn’t supported.
 - "Do worktrees duplicate the repo on disk?" — No, Git reuses objects; only working files are separate.
+- "How do I manage different Minecraft versions?" — Use separate branches for each version, each with its own dependencies and configurations.
