 #### Updating Proto Files?
 
-If you're making changes to any of the proto files, you'll have to perform the following steps:
-
-- `make build` - build binary artifacts.
-- `make test` - run all tests.
-- `make check` - perform check like fmt and vet.
-- `make clean` - clean all binary artifacts.
-- `make build-proto` - rebuild all proto files.
+- Make sure you have `[buf](https://github.com/bufbuild/buf)` installed
