 ## Unreleased
 
+Breaking changes:
+
+- Removed support for using browserify as a bundler.
+
+  - Browserify is largely unmaintained at this point and is making it impossible to keep dependencies up-to-date as Browserify itself does not do that. Furthermore, the Browserify bundler is deprecated by Cypress. If you'd still like to use Browserify, you can pin your dependency on `@badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor` to `~23.x.y`.
+
+  - A branch named `v23.x.y` has been created to continue illustrating how to use Browserify. This is mentioned in the FAQ.
+
+Other changes:
+
 - Run hooks (BeforeAll/AfterAll) may now be optionally named. This is in line with how cucumber-js behaves.
 
 - Allow step hooks to return skipped / pending.

 > `And` is only used in scenarios, not as step definition methods. Semantically it means "same keyword as in previous step"; technically it is just another step. In fact, you can use `Given()`, `When()` and `Then()` interchangeably in your step definitions, Cucumber will not enforce a match between the step keyword and the step definition function.
 
+## Can I use Browserify as a bundler?
+
+Yes. Support for Browserify was removed in v24.0.0, but you can still use v23.x.y. Updates to this library will seldomly be backported to the v23-line of versions, so users are recommended to switch bundler. Moreever, this line is _not_ subject to semver, so pinning to the current minor version is also recommended (IE. `~23.x.y` instead of `^23.x.y` in package.json).
+
+```
+$ npm install @badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor@23
+```
+
+Examples illustrating use of Browserify can be found [here](https://github.com/badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor/blob/v23.x.y/examples/readme.md).

 ## Which preprocessor version should I choose?
 
 The observant reader might have noticed that there's a NPM package named `cypress-cucumber-preprocessor` and `@badeball/cypress-cucumber-preprocessor`. This is merely a result of maintainer and ownership transfer. The package `cypress-cucumber-preprocessor` is severely outdated by now and as far as I (the current maintainer) know, there's no reason to be using it.
