-## Compiling Erlang
+### Rebar3 Scaffold Details
 
-After Fable generates `.erl` files, compile them with `erlc`:
+— if you create your own `rebar.config` (without the Fable marker), it will be left untouched (a warning is emitted)
+— project and dependency names are normalized to valid OTP application names (e.g., `Fable.Logging.0.10.0` → `fable_logging`, `fable-library-beam` → `fable_library_beam`)
+— the generated `rebar.config` uses `{project_app_dirs, [".", "fable_modules/*"]}` so rebar3 treats each NuGet dependency as a sub-application
 
-```bash
-# Compile the runtime library
-erlc -o output/fable_modules/fable-library-beam output/fable_modules/fable-library-beam/*.erl
+## Compiling with rebar3
+
+After Fable generates the scaffold, compile everything with rebar3:
 
-# Compile your project files
-erlc -pa output/fable_modules/fable-library-beam -o output output/*.erl
+```bash
+rebar3 compile
 ```
 
+This compiles all `.erl` files (your project and all dependencies) and places `.beam` files in `_build/default/lib/*/ebin/`.
+
 ## Running Erlang Code
 
 Run your compiled module using the Erlang shell:
 
 ```bash
-erl -pa output -pa output/fable_modules/fable-library-beam \
-    -noshell -eval 'program:main(), halt().'
+erl -noshell -pa _build/default/lib/*/ebin \
+    -eval 'program:main(), halt().'
 ```
 
-The `-pa` flag adds directories to the code path so Erlang can find both your modules and the Fable runtime library.
