+### Working with Snapshots
+
+This will allow you to use the updates from perses core in your plugin so you can test the changes.
+
+1. In perses/perses create a [snapshot](https://github.com/perses/perses/blob/30758a963337564ab58c78646a1134e51d74e146/RELEASE.md?plain=1#L109-L146). Snapshots will be released in npm:
+- https://www.npmjs.com/package/@perses-dev/components/
+- https://www.npmjs.com/package/@perses-dev/core
+- https://www.npmjs.com/package/@perses-dev/plugin-system
+- https://www.npmjs.com/package/@perses-dev/dashboards
+- https://www.npmjs.com/package/@perses-dev/explore
+
+2. Copy the name of your snapshot, for exampale `v0.0.0-snapshot-panel-actions-520389b`.
+
+3. In perses/plugin, navigate to the plugin you are changing and install the snapshot npm packages, this should be installed as "dependencies" NOT "peerDependencies" for example:
+
+```
+# perses/plugins/timeserieschart/package.json
+
+"dependencies": {
+    "color-hash": "^2.0.2"
++   "@perses-dev/components": "v0.0.0-snapshot-panel-actions-520389b",
++   "@perses-dev/core": "v0.0.0-snapshot-panel-actions-520389b",
++   "@perses-dev/plugin-system": "v0.0.0-snapshot-panel-actions-520389b"
+  },
+  "peerDependencies": {
+    "@emotion/react": "^11.7.1",
+    "@emotion/styled": "^11.6.0",
+    "@hookform/resolvers": "^3.2.0",
+-   "@perses-dev/components": "^0.51.0-rc.1",
+-   "@perses-dev/core": "^0.51.0-rc.1",
+-   "@perses-dev/plugin-system": "^0.51.0-rc.1",
+    "date-fns": "^4.1.0",
+    "date-fns-tz": "^3.2.0",
+    "echarts": "5.5.0",
+    "lodash": "^4.17.21",
+    "react": "^17.0.2 || ^18.0.0",
+    "react-dom": "^17.0.2 || ^18.0.0",
+    "use-resize-observer": "^9.0.0",
+    "immer": "^10.1.1"
+  }
+```
+
+4. Then run `npm install` on the plugin folder to update the dependencies of your plugin (e.g., `cd perses/plugins/timeserieschart && npm install`).
