 ## Getting Started

-can import files from it to complete their CI configuration.
+This project is meant to be hosted in a GitLab instance so that other projects
+can use it to configure their CI pipelines.
+
+**As of v2025.11.0**, RADIUSS Shared CI is available as **GitLab CI Components** (requires GitLab 17.0+). This provides:
+
+- **Better versioning** through the GitLab CI/CD Catalog
+- **Type-safe inputs** with validated parameters
+- **Cleaner syntax** using `component:` instead of `include: project:`
+- **No more copy-pasting** - all templates are reusable components
 
 User documentation is located here: [**RADIUSS Shared CI Docs**](https://radiuss-shared-ci.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
 
+### Quick Start with Components
+
+Add components to your `.gitlab-ci.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+# You must define stages (components don't define them to allow customization)
+stages:
+  - prerequisites
+  - build-and-test
+  - performance-measurements
+
+include:
+  # Base pipeline orchestration
+  - component: $CI_SERVER_FQDN/radiuss/radiuss-shared-ci/base-pipeline@v2025.11.0
+    inputs:
+      github_project_name: "my-project"
+      github_project_org: "LLNL"
+      github_token: $GITHUB_TOKEN
+
+  # Machine-specific pipeline (choose the machines you need)
+  - component: $CI_SERVER_FQDN/radiuss/radiuss-shared-ci/lassen-pipeline@v2025.11.0
+    inputs:
+      job_cmd: "./scripts/build-and-test.sh"
+      job_alloc: "1 -W 30"
+      github_project_name: "my-project"
+      github_project_org: "LLNL"
+```
+
+See the [examples/](examples/) directory for complete configuration examples.
+
+### Available Components
+
+- **base-pipeline** - Orchestration templates and machine availability checks
+- **lassen-pipeline** - Lassen supercomputer (LSF scheduler)
+- **dane-pipeline** - Dane supercomputer (SLURM scheduler)
+- **matrix-pipeline** - Matrix supercomputer (SLURM scheduler)
+- **corona-pipeline** - Corona supercomputer (flux scheduler)
+- **tioga-pipeline** - Tioga supercomputer (flux scheduler)
+- **tuolumne-pipeline** - Tuolumne supercomputer (flux scheduler)
+- **performance-pipeline** - Performance measurement and GitHub reporting
+- **utility-draft-pr-filter** - Skip CI on draft pull requests
+- **utility-branch-skip** - Skip CI on non-PR branches
+
+### Legacy Include-Based Approach
+
+The traditional include-based approach (using `pipelines/*.yml` and `utilities/*.yml`) is still available for GitLab versions < 17.0 or for projects that haven't yet migrated. See the documentation for migration guidance.
+
 ### Installing
 
-This project requires no installation.
