As you use Compute Engine, you might find it useful to explore different
forms of resources. The following sections provide some information about
videos, samples, and reference architectures available for Compute Engine.

## Videos

Videos are a quick and easy way to get started learning about
Compute Engine. There are several types of videos available to watch,
including presentations, screencasts, and technical overviews.

Visit the
[Google Cloud YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/user/googlecloudplatform) for
a comprehensive list of videos.

## Samples

You can use [client libraries](https://docs.cloud.google.com/compute/docs/api/libraries) to make calls to the
Compute Engine API. Code samples are available for each client library in the
GitHub repository that corresponds to the programming language of your choice.
Check the repository for the language you use to find sample usage and basic
guidance.

## Reference architectures and design patterns

Reference architectures and patterns can help you plan more involved solutions
that incorporate Compute Engine. There are a variety of reference
architectures, diagrams, design patterns, and best practices available for
building or migrating workloads using Compute Engine.

Visit the [Cloud Architecture Center](https://docs.cloud.google.com/architecture?text=Compute+Engine) for a
comprehensive list of articles, tutorials, and reference guides.
