No special guidance necessary, the installation and setup instructions
describe publishing a geopackage - but the steps to publish a shape file
are identical.


   1. Setup a workspace (I recommend only one to start)
   2. Setup a data store (in your case a shape file datastore)
   3. Publish the layer contained in the shape file (provide a name / title
   / abstract, check the spatial reference system / bounds)
   4. Verify the data looks okay in they layer preview, you can also try
   downloading GeoJSON if you like


How big is your shape file?
