[explained]: https://cloud.google.com/apis/docs/client-libraries-explained **Table of contents:** * [Quickstart](#quickstart) * [Installing the client library](#installing-the-client-library) * [Versioning](#versioning) * [Contributing](#contributing) * [License](#license) ## Quickstart ### Installing the client library ```bash npm install @google-cloud/common ``` It's unlikely you will need to install this package directly, as it will be installed as a dependency when you install other `@google-cloud` packages. The [Google Cloud Common Node.js Client API Reference][client-docs] documentation also contains samples. ## Versioning This library follows [Semantic Versioning](http://semver.org/). This library is considered to be **General Availability (GA)**. This means it is stable; the code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible ways unless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or with an extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests against **GA** libraries are addressed with the highest priority.
