+## Publish the Shadowed JAR instead of the Original JAR
+
+You may want to publish the shadowed JAR instead of the original JAR. This can be done by trimming 
+the `archiveClassifier` of the shadowed JAR like the following:
+
+```groovy
+apply plugin: 'java'
+apply plugin: 'maven-publish'
+apply plugin: 'com.gradleup.shadow'
+
+group = 'shadow'
+version = '1.0'
+
+dependencies {
+  // This will be bundled in the shadowed JAR and not declared in the POM.
+  implementation 'some:a:1.0'
+  // This will be excluded from the shadowed JAR but declared as a runtime dependency in `META-INF/MANIFEST.MF`
+  // file's `Class-Path` entry, and also in the POM file.
+  shadow 'some:b:1.0'
+  // This will be excluded from the shadowed JAR and not declared in the POM or `META-INF/MANIFEST.MF`.
+  compileOnly 'some:c:1.0'
+}
+
+tasks.named('shadowJar', com.github.jengelman.gradle.plugins.shadow.tasks.ShadowJar) {
+  archiveClassifier = ''
+}

+  publications {
+    shadow(MavenPublication) {

+  }
+  repositories {
+    maven {
+      url = "https://repo.myorg.com"
+    }
+  }
+}
