 ## DFX
 
+### feat!: Removed dfx replica and dfx bootstrap commands
+
+Use `dfx start` instead.  If you have a good reason why we should keep these commands, please contribute to the discussion at https://github.com/dfinity/sdk/discussions/3163
+
 ### fix: Wait for new module hash when installing wallet
 
 A previous change made dfx wait after installing a canister until the replica updated its reported module hash, but this change did not affect wallets. Now dfx waits for wallets too, to eliminate a class of wallet installation errors.

-> **NOTE**: The bootstrap command is deprecated. Please use the [dfx start](./dfx-start.md) command instead. If you have a good reason to use the bootstrap command, please contribute to the [discussion](https://github.com/dfinity/sdk/discussions/3163).

-Use the `dfx bootstrap` command to start the bootstrap web server defined in the `dfx.json` configuration file or specified using command-line options.
-
-The bootstrap web server you specify is used to serve the front-end static assets for your project.
-
-## Basic usage {#_basic_usage}
-
-``` bash
-dfx bootstrap [option]
-```
-
-## Options {#_options}
-
-You can specify the following options for the `dfx bootstrap` command.
-
-| Option               | Description     |
------------------------|-----------------|
-| `ip` <ip_address\>    | Specifies the IP address that the bootstrap server listens on. If you don't specify an IP address, the `address` setting you have configured in the `dfx.json` configuration file is used. By default, the server address is 127.0.0.1. |
-| \--network <network\> | Specifies the network to connect to if you want to override the default local network endpoint (`http://127.0.0.1:8080/api`).|
-| \--port <port\>       | Specifies the port number that the bootstrap server listens on. By default, port number 8081 is used.                                                                                                                                   |
-| \--timeout <timeout\> | Specifies the maximum amount of time, in seconds, the bootstrap server will wait for upstream requests to complete. By default, the bootstrap server waits for a maximum of 30 seconds.                                                 |
-
-## Examples {#_examples}
-
-You can use the `dfx bootstrap` command to start a web server for your application using custom settings, including a specific server address, port number, and static asset location.
-
-For example, to start the bootstrap server using a specific IP address and port number, you would run a command similar to the following:
-
-``` bash
-dfx bootstrap --ip 192.168.47.1 --port 5353
-```
-
-The command displays output similar to the following:
-
-``` bash
-binding to: V4(192.168.47.1:5353)
-replica(s): \http://127.0.0.1:8080/api
-Webserver started...
-```
-
-To use the default server address and port number but specify a custom location for static assets and longer timeout period, you might run a command similar to the following:
-
-``` bash
-dfx bootstrap --root $HOME/ic-projects/assets --timeout 60
-```
-
-You can use CTRL-C to stop the bootstrap server.

 # dfx replica
 
-> **NOTE**: The replica command is deprecated. Please use the [dfx start](./dfx-start.md) command instead. If you have a good reason to use the replica command, please contribute to the [discussion](https://github.com/dfinity/sdk/discussions/3163).
+> **NOTE**: The replica command has been removed. Please use the [dfx start](./dfx-start.md) command instead. If you have a good reason to use the replica command, please contribute to the [discussion](https://github.com/dfinity/sdk/discussions/3163).
 
-Use the `dfx replica` command to start a local canister execution environment (without a web server). This command enables you to deploy canisters locally and to test your dapps during development.
-
-By default, all local dfx projects will use a single shared local canister execution environment, and you can run `dfx replica` from any directory.  See [Local Server Configuration](#local-server-configuration) and [Project-Specific Local Networks](dfx-start.md#project-specific-local-networks) for exceptions.
-
-## Basic usage
-
-``` bash
-dfx replica [option] [flag]
-```
-
-## Flags
-
-You can use the following optional flags with the `dfx replica` command.
-
-| Flag              | Description                                                                                   |
-|-------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-| `--emulator`      | Starts the [IC reference emulator](https://github.com/dfinity/ic-hs) rather than the replica. |
-| `--enable-bitcoin`| Enables bitcoin integration.                                                                  |
-| `--enable-canister-http` | Enables canister HTTP requests. (deprecated: now enabled by default)                   |
-
-## Options
-
-You can use the following option with the `dfx replica` command.
-
-| Option                    | Description                                                                   |
-|---------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
-| `--port port`             | Specifies the port the local canister execution environment should listen to. |
-| `--bitcoin-node host:port` | Specifies the address of a bitcoind node.  Implies `--enable-bitcoin`. |
-| `--artificial-delay milliseconds` | Specifies the delay that an update call should incur. Default: 600ms  |
-
-## Examples
-
-You can start the local canister execution environment by running the following command:
-
-``` bash
-dfx replica
-```
