[Compute: Nodejs Client][homepage]

This library is considered to be in preview. This means it is still a
work-in-progress and under active development. Any release is subject to
backwards-incompatible changes at any time.


Compute client for Node.js

> Node.js idiomatic client for [Compute Engine][product-docs].
Compute Engine is a
computing and hosting service that lets you create and run virtual
machines on Google infrastructure. Compute Engine offers scale,
performance, and value that lets you easily launch large compute
clusters on Google infrastructure. There are no upfront
investments, and you can run thousands of virtual CPUs on a system
that offers quick, consistent performance.
This library is GA from version 3.1.0. It is
backwards-incompatible with prior versions 0.x.y, 1.x.y, 2.x.y,
and 3.0.y.
There are handwritten samples for this library in nodejs-docs-samples.
Additionally, there are autogenerated samples in this library under samples/generated,
but we recommend using handwritten guidance where possible.

A comprehensive list of changes in each version may be found in
[the CHANGELOG][homepage_changelog].
