I doubt you could do it "comprehensively" in one article.  There are plenty of *books* https://iopscience.iop.org/book/mono/978-0-7503-1278-3

My initial thought was [Stellar Evolution](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_evolution) at Wikipedia. Are you looking for something more scholarly-based rather than "wisdom of the crowds" based?

I think something more scholarly-based, although I have seen that article and it as halpful

How technical or comprehensive are you prepared to get? Would chapters 10-16 of [Jørgen Christensen-Dalsgaard's lecture notes](https://users-phys.au.dk/~jcd/evolnotes/) or chapters 9-13 of [Onno Pols' lecture notes](https://www.astro.ru.nl/~onnop/education/stev_utrecht_notes/) do? If you gloss over the derivations, they both describe everything that we think happens inside the stars.

@Warrick Thanks, these are helpful. The one article that I find really useful is Comprehensive analytic formulae for stellar evolution as a function of mass and metallicity at

Is there an article that comprehensively covers stellar evolution, from start to finish. I've found articles on this, one in an introduction to a stellar evolution model, and I am searching for more. It's fine if the article wasn't built to give a comprehensive overview, it just needs to include one.
