+# Google Compute Engine Samples
+
+This section contains samples for [Google Compute Engine](https://cloud.google.com/compute).
+
+## Running the samples
+
+1. Your environment must be setup with [authentication
+information](https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/application-default-credentials#howtheywork). *Note* that Cloud Monitoring does not currently work
+with `gcloud auth`. You will need to use a *service account* when running
+locally and set the `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` environment variable.
+
+        $ export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/service_account.json
+
+2. Install dependencies from the top-level [`requirements.txt`](../requirements.txt):
+
+        $ pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+3. Depending on the sample, you may also need to create resources on the [Google Developers Console](https://console.developers.google.com). Refer to the sample description and associated documentation page.
