+# google-cloud-compute library samples
+
+These samples demonstrate usage of the google-cloud-compute library to interact
+with the Google Compute Engine API.
+
+## Running the quickstart script
+
+### Before you begin
+
+1. If you haven't already, set up a Python Development Environment by following the [python setup guide](https://cloud.google.com/python/setup) and 
+[create a project](https://cloud.google.com/resource-manager/docs/creating-managing-projects#creating_a_project).
+
+1. Create a service account with the 'Editor' permissions by following these 
+[instructions](https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/creating-managing-service-accounts).
+
+1. [Download a JSON key](https://cloud.google.com/iam/docs/creating-managing-service-account-keys) to use to authenticate your script.
+
+1. Configure your local environment to use the acquired key.
+```bash
+export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/service/account/key.json
+```
+
+### Install requirements
+
+Create a new virtual environment and install the required libraries.
+```bash
+virtualenv --python python3 name-of-your-virtualenv
+source name-of-your-virtualenv/bin/activate
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### Run the demo
+
+Run the quickstart script, providing it with your project name, a GCP zone and a name for the instance that will be created and destroyed:
+```bash
+# For example, to create machine "test-instance" in europe-central2-a in project "my-test-project":
+python quickstart.py my-test-project europe-central2-a test-instance
+```
