 This repo ships the **tracebloc** unified Helm chart (currently `v1.3.1`) — one chart for AKS, EKS, bare-metal, and OpenShift.
 
+### Quick install
+
+A single command provisions a Kubernetes cluster, auto-detects and installs GPU drivers (NVIDIA or AMD), and deploys the tracebloc client. Use this when you don't already have a cluster — the result is a full client install, not a demo.
+
+**macOS / Linux**
+
+```bash
+bash <(curl -fsSL https://tracebloc.io/i.sh)
+```
+
+**Windows** *(PowerShell as Administrator)*
+
+```powershell
+irm https://tracebloc.io/i.ps1 | iex
+```
+
+The installer pulls helper scripts from this repo at runtime — see [`scripts/install-k8s.sh`](scripts/install-k8s.sh) and [`scripts/install-k8s.ps1`](scripts/install-k8s.ps1).
+
+### Helm install
+
+For existing Kubernetes clusters:
+
 ```bash
 helm repo add tracebloc https://tracebloc.github.io/client
 helm repo update
