+GARM enables you to create and automatically maintain pools of [self-hosted GitHub runners](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/hosting-your-own-runners/about-self-hosted-runners), with auto-scaling that can be used inside your github workflow runs.
 
 The goal of ```GARM``` is to be simple to set up, simple to configure and simple to use. It is a single binary that can run on any GNU/Linux machine without any other requirements other than the providers it creates the runners in. It is intended to be easy to deploy in any environment and can create runners in any system you can write a provider for. There is no complicated setup process and no extremely complex concepts to understand. Once set up, it's meant to stay out of your way.
 
-Garm supports creating pools on either GitHub itself or on your own deployment of [GitHub Enterprise Server](https://docs.github.com/en/[email protected]/admin/overview/about-github-enterprise-server). For instructions on how to use ```GARM``` with GHE, see the [credentials](/doc/github_credentials.md) section of the documentation.

+Through the use of providers, `GARM` can create runners in a variety of environments using the same `GARM` instance. Want to create pools of runners in your OpenStack cloud, your Azure cloud and your Kubernetes cluster? No problem! Just install the appropriate providers, configure them in `GARM` and you're good to go. Create zero-runner pools for instances with high costs (large VMs, GPU enabled instances, etc) and have them spin up on demand, or create large pools of k8s backed runners that can be used for your CI/CD pipelines at a moment's notice. You can mix them up and create pools in any combination of providers or resource allocations you want.

 ## Installing
 
+### On virtual or physical machines

 Check out the [quickstart](/doc/quickstart.md) document for instructions on how to install ```GARM```. If you'd like to build from source, check out the [building from source](/doc/building_from_source.md) document.
 
+### On Kubernetes
+
+Thanks to the efforts of the amazing folks at @mercedes-benz, GARM can now be integrated into k8s via their operator. Check out the [GARM operator](https://github.com/mercedes-benz/garm-operator/) for more details.

+## Supported providers
+
+GARM has a built-in LXD provider that you can use out of the box to spin up runners on any machine that runs either a stand-alone LXD instance, or an LXD cluster. The quick start guide mentioned above will get you up and running with the LXD provider.
+
+GARM also supports external providers for a variety of other targets.

 ## Installing external providers
 
 External providers are binaries that GARM calls into to create runners in a particular IaaS. There are currently two external providers available:

 The providers are interfaces between ```GARM``` and a particular IaaS in which we spin up GitHub Runners. These providers can be either **native** or **external**. The **native** providers are written in ```Go```, and must implement [the interface defined here](https://github.com/cloudbase/garm/blob/main/runner/common/provider.go#L22-L39). **External** providers can be written in any language, as they are in the form of an external executable that ```GARM``` calls into.
 
-There is currently one **native** provider for [LXD](https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/) and two **external** providers for [Openstack and Azure](/contrib/providers.d/).
+There is currently one **native** provider for [LXD](https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/) and several **external** providers linked above.
+
+If you want to write your own provider, you can choose to write a native one, or implement an **external** one. I encourage you to opt for an **external** provider, as those are the easiest to write and you don't need to merge it in GARM itself to be able to use. Faster to write, faster to iterate. The LXD provider may at some point be split from GARM into it's own external project, at which point we will remove the native provider interface and only support external providers.
