+  #### About Google Cloud Storage
+
+  [Google Cloud Storage](https://cloud.google.com/storage/) is a durable and highly available
+  object storage service. Google Cloud Storage is almost infinitely scalable
+  and guarantees consistency: when a write succeeds, the latest copy of the
+  object will be returned to any GET, globally.
+
+  See the [Google Cloud Storage docs](https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/signup?hl=en) for more details
+  on how to activate Cloud Storage for your project.
+
+  #### About Java NIO Providers
+
+  Java NIO Providers is an extension mechanism that is part of Java and allows
+  third parties to extend Java's [normal File API](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/nio/file/Files.html) to support
+  additional filesystems.
+
+  #### Accessing files
+
+  The simplest way to get started is with `Paths` and `Files`:
+
+  ```java
+  Path path = Paths.get(URI.create("gs://bucket/lolcat.csv"));
+  List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(path, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
+  ```
+
+  If you know the paths will point to Google Cloud Storage, you can also use the
+  direct formulation:
+
+  ```java
+  try (CloudStorageFileSystem fs = CloudStorageFileSystem.forBucket("bucket")) {
+    Path path = fs.getPath("lolcat.csv");
+    List<String> lines = Files.readAllLines(path, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
+  }
+  ```
+
+  Once you have a `Path` you can use it as you would a normal file. For example
+  you can use `InputStream` and `OutputStream` for streaming:
+
+  ```java
+  try (InputStream input = Files.openInputStream(path)) {
+    // ...
+  }
+  ```
+
+  You can also set various attributes using CloudStorageOptions static helpers:
+
+  ```java
+  Files.write(csvPath, csvLines, StandardCharsets.UTF_8,
+      withMimeType(MediaType.CSV_UTF8),
+      withoutCaching());
+  ```
+
+  #### Limitations
+
+  This library is usable, but not yet complete. The following features are not
+  yet implemented:
+   * Resuming upload or download
+   * Generations
+   * File attributes
+   * (more - list is not exhaustive)
+
+  Some features are not on the roadmap: this library would be a poor choice to
+  mirror a local filesystem onto the cloud because Google Cloud Storage has a
+  different set of features from your local disk. This library, by design,
+  does not mask those differences. Rather, it aims to expose the common
+  subset via a familiar interface.
+
+  **NOTE:** Cloud Storage uses a flat namespace and therefore doesn't support real
+  directories. So this library supports what's known as "pseudo-directories". Any
+  path that includes a trailing slash, will be considered a directory. It will
+  always be assumed to exist, without performing any I/O. Paths without the trailing
+  slash will result in an I/O operation to check a file is present in that "directory".
+  This allows you to do path manipulation in the same manner as you would with the normal UNIX file
+  system implementation. You can disable this feature with
+  `CloudStorageConfiguration.usePseudoDirectories()`.
+
+  #### Complete source code
+
+  There are examples in [google-cloud-nio-examples](google-cloud-nio-examples/src/main/java/com/google/cloud/examples/nio/)
+  for your perusal.

-[NIO Filesystem Provider for Google Cloud Storage][product-docs]
