-### Kaleido external dependency
-
-When developing applications for your host, enabling both `kaleido` and `kaleido_download` features will ensure that the `kaleido` binary is downloaded for your system's architecture at compile time. After download, it is unpacked into a specific path, e.g., on Linux this is `/home/USERNAME/.config/kaleido`. With these two features enabled, static images can be exported as described in the next section as long as the application runs on the same machine where it has been compiled on.
-
-When the applications developed with `plotly.rs` are intended for other targets or when the user wants to control where the `kaleido` binary is installed then Kaleido must be manually downloaded and installed. Setting the environment variable `KALEIDO_PATH=/path/installed/kaleido/` will ensure that applications that were built with the `kaleido` feature enabled can locate the `kaleido` executable and use it to generate static images.

-Kaleido binaries are available on Github [release page](https://github.com/plotly/Kaleido/releases). It currently supports Linux(`x86_64`), Windows(`x86_64`) and MacOS(`x86_64`/`aarch64`).

 # Crate Feature Flags
 
 The following feature flags are available:
 
-### `kaleido`
+### `static_export_default`
 
-Adds plot save functionality to the following formats: `png`, `jpeg`, `webp`, `svg`, `pdf` and `eps`.
+Since version `0.13.0` support for exporting to static images is based on using a new crate called `plotly_static` that uses WebDriver and browser automation for static export functionality.
 
-Requires `Kaleido` to have been previously installed on the host machine. See the following feature flag and [Kaleido external dependency](#kaleido-external-dependency).
+This feature flag automatically enables the usage of the `plotly_static` dependency as well as the `chromedriver` and `webdriver_download` features of that crate. For more details about these feature flags, refer to the `plotly_static` [documentation](plotly_static/README.md).   
 
-### `kaleido_download`
+The other related features allow controlling other aspects of the `plotly_static` crate
+ - `static_export_chromedriver`
+ - `static_export_geckodriver`
+ - `static_export_wd_download`
 
-Enable download and install of Kaleido binary at build time from [Kaleido releases](https://github.com/plotly/Kaleido/releases/) on the host machine.
