 # Quick Start
-Starting from version 8.0, GitLab Continuous Integration (CI) is fully
-integrated into GitLab itself and is enabled by default on all projects.
-This guide assumes that you:
-- have a working GitLab instance of version 8.0 or higher or are using
-  [GitLab.com](https://gitlab.com/users/sign_in)
-- have a project in GitLab that you would like to use CI for
-In brief, the steps needed to have a working CI can be summed up to:
-1. Create a new project
-1. Add `.gitlab-ci.yml` to the git repository and push to GitLab
+>**Note:** Starting from version 8.0, GitLab [Continuous Integration][ci] (CI)
+is fully integrated into GitLab itself and is [enabled] by default on all
+projects.
+The TL;DR version of how GitLab CI works is the following.
+---
+
+GitLab offers a [continuous integration][ci] service. If you
+[add a `.gitlab-ci.yml` file][yaml] to the root directory of your repository,
+and configure your GitLab project to use a [Runner], then each merge request or
+push triggers a build.
+
+The `.gitlab-ci.yml` file tells the GitLab runner what do to. By default it
+runs three [stages]: `build`, `test`, and `deploy`.
+
+If everything runs OK (no non-zero return values), you'll get a nice green
+checkmark associated with the pushed commit or merge request. This makes it
+easy to see whether a merge request will cause any of the tests to fail before
+you even look at the code.
+
+Most projects only use GitLab's CI service to run the test suite so that
+developers get immediate feedback if they broke something.
+So in brief, the steps needed to have a working CI can be summed up to:
+1. Add `.gitlab-ci.yml` to the root directory of your repository
 1. Configure a Runner
-From there on, on every push to your git repository the build will be
+From there on, on every push to your Git repository, the build will be
 automagically started by the Runner and will appear under the project's
 `/builds` page.
-Now, let's break it down to pieces and work on solving the GitLab CI puzzle.
