+Default Deployment
+------------------
 The easiest way is to add ``UniversalDeployPlugin`` to your ``build.sbt``
 
 .. code-block:: scala
 
     import NativePackagerKeys._
 
     enablePlugins(JavaServerAppPackaging, UniversalDeployPlugin)

-You are now able to publish your application by scope.
+You are now able to publish your packaged application in both ``tgz`` and ``zip`` formats with:
 
+  ``universal:publish``
+    Publish the ``zip`` (or ``tgz``/``txz`` depending on the configuration. Default is to publish ``zip`` along with ``tgz``) package
 
-  ``debian:publish``
-    Publish jars along with the ``deb`` package
+Custom Deployments
+------------------
+When using other package formats we need to explicitly configure the
+deployment setup to a more specific one.
 
-  ``rpm:publish``
-    Publish jars along with the ``rpm`` package

-  ``windows:publish``
-    Publish jars along with the ``msi`` package

+Your ``build.sbt`` should contain:

+If using an ``msi`` packaging you need to enable:
