+
+The benefits of Continuous Integration are huge when automation plays an
+integral part of your workflow. GitLab comes with integrated Continuous
+Integration (CI) and Continuous Delivery (CD) to test, build and deploy your
+code.
+
+Here's some info we've gathered to get you started.
+
+## Getting started
