+---
+
+We regularly publish nightly versions of both Scala 3 and 2 so that users can preview and test the contents of upcoming releases.
+
+Here's how to find and use these versions.
+
+## Scala 3
+
+Scala 3 nightly versions are published to Maven Central. If you know the full version number of the nightly you want to use, you can use it just like any other Scala 3 version.
+
+One quick way to get that version number is to visit [https://dotty.epfl.ch](https://dotty.epfl.ch) and look in the upper left corner.
+
+Another way is to scrape Maven Central, as shown in this script: [https://raw.githubusercontent.com/VirtusLab/community-build3/master/scripts/lastVersionNightly.sc](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/VirtusLab/community-build3/master/scripts/lastVersionNightly.sc)
+
+A third way is to use [scala-cli](https://scala-cli.virtuslab.org), as follows. (Since Scala 3.5.0, the `scala` command runs `scala-cli`.)
+
+### scala-cli
+
+You can run nightlies with commands such as:
+
+    scala-cli -S 3.nightly
+    scala-cli -S 3.3.nightly
+
+The default command is `repl`, but all the other scala-cli subcommands such as `compile` and `run` work, too. It also works with `//>` directives in your script itself, for example:
+
+    //> using scala 3.nightly
+
+See this [scala-cli doc page](https://scala-cli.virtuslab.org/docs/commands/compile#scala-nightlies) for details.
+
+## Scala 2.13 or 2.12
+
+We informally refer to Scala 2 “nightly” versions, but technically it's a misnomer. A so-called “nightly” is built for every merged PR.
+
+Scala 2 nightly versions are published to a special resolver. Unless you are using scala-cli, you'll need to add that resolver to your build configuration in order to use these versions.
+
+### quick version (sbt)
+
+    Global / resolvers += "scala-integration" at
+      "https://scala-ci.typesafe.com/artifactory/scala-integration/"
+    scalaVersion := "2.13.15-bin-abcd123"
+
+For a 2.12 nightly, substitute e.g. `2.12.20` for `2.13.15`; in either case, it's the version number of the _next_ release on that branch.
+
+For `abcd123`, substitute the first 7 characters of the SHA of the latest commit to the [2.13.x branch](https://github.com/scala/scala/commits/2.13.x) or [2.12.x branch](https://github.com/scala/scala/commits/2.12.x) that has a green checkmark. (Clicking the checkmark will show a CI job name with the whole version in its name.)
+
+A quick way to find out the full version number of a current nightly is to use [scala-cli](https://scala-cli.virtuslab.org), as follows.
+
+### quick version (scala-cli)
+
+You can run nightlies with:
+
+    scala-cli -S 2.13.nightly
+    scala-cli -S 2.nightly     # same as 2.13.nightly
+    scala-cli -S 2.12.nightly
+
+The default command is `repl`, but all the other scala-cli subcommands such as `compile` and `run` work, too. It also works with `//>` directives in your script itself, for example:
+
+    //> using scala 2.nightly
+
+### Longer explanation
+
+We no longer publish `-SNAPSHOT` versions of Scala 2.
+
+But the team does publish nightly versions, each with its own fixed version number. The version number of a nightly looks like e.g. `2.13.1-bin-abcd123`. (`-bin-` signals binary compatibility to sbt; all 2.13.x releases since 2.13.0 are binary compatible with each other.)
+
+To tell sbt to use one of these nightlies, you need to do three things.
+
+First, add the resolver where the nightlies are kept:
+
+    Global / resolvers += "scala-integration" at
+      "https://scala-ci.typesafe.com/artifactory/scala-integration/"
+
+Second, specify the Scala version:
+
+    scalaVersion := "2.13.1-bin-abcd123"
+
+But that isn't a real version number. Manually substitute a version number containing the 7-character SHA of the last commit in the [scala/scala repository](https://github.com/scala/scala) for which a nightly version was published.  Look at [https://travis-ci.org/scala/scala/branches](https://travis-ci.org/scala/scala/branches) and you'll see the SHA in the upper right corner of the 2.13.x (or 2.12.x) section.
+
+As soon as 2.13.1 is released, the version number in the nightly will bump to 2.13.2, and so on.
+
+If you have a multiproject build, be sure you set these settings across all projects when you modify your build definition. Or, you may set them temporarily in the sbt shell with `++2.13.1-bin-abcd123` (sbt 0.13.x) or `++2.13.1-bin-abcd123!` (sbt 1.x; the added exclamation point is necessary to force a version not included in `crossScalaVersions` to be used).
+
+Ideally, we would suggest an automated way to ask Travis-CI for the right SHA. This is presumably possible via Travis-CI's API, but as far as we know, nobody has looked into it yet. (Is there a volunteer?)
