 ## Getting started
 
+### Using CDN
+
+#### How to install
+
+All components are available via CDN. This means that they can be added to your application without the need of any
+bundler configuration. Each component is available by the `latest` tag, or referencing a specific version (starting at
+version `v1.16.0`):
+
+```html
+<!-- By `latest` tag -->
+<script type="module" src="https://1.www.s81c.com/common/carbon/web-components/tag/latest/accordion.min.js"></script>
+
+<!-- By specific version -->
+<script type="module" src="https://1.www.s81c.com/common/carbon/web-components/version/v1.16.0/accordion.min.js"></script>
+```
+
+These are the list of available components via CDN:
+
+- accordion.min.js
+- breadcrumb.min.js
+- button.min.js
+- checkbox.min.js
+- code-snippet.min.js
+- combo-box.min.js
+- content-switcher.min.js
+- copy-button.min.js
+- data-table.min.js
+- date-picker.min.js
+- dropdown.min.js
+- file-uploader.min.js
+- floating-menu.min.js
+- form.min.js
+- inline-loading.min.js
+- input.min.js
+- link.min.js
+- list.min.js
+- loading.min.js
+- modal.min.js
+- multi-select.min.js
+- notification.min.js
+- number-input.min.js
+- overflow-menu.min.js
+- pagination.min.js
+- progress-indicator.min.js
+- radio-button.min.js
+- search.min.js
+- select.min.js
+- skeleton-placeholder.min.js
+- skeleton-text.min.js
+- skip-to-content.min.js
+- slider.min.js
+- structured-list.min.js
+- tabs.min.js
+- tag.min.js
+- textarea.min.js
+- tile.min.js
+- toggle.min.js
+- tooltip.min.js
+- ui-shell.min.js
+
+To use the right-to-left (RTL) version of the artifacts, change the file extention from `.min.js` to `.rtl.min.js`. For
+example:
+
+```html
+<!-- By `latest` tag (RTL) -->
+<script type="module" src="https://1.www.s81c.com/common/carbon/web-components/tag/latest/accordion.rtl.min.js"></script>
+
+<!-- By specific version (RTL) -->
+<script type="module" src="https://1.www.s81c.com/common/carbon/web-components/version/v1.16.0/accordion.rtl.min.js"></script>
+```
+
+#### Basic usage
+
+The CDN artifacts define the custom elements for the browser, so they can be directly used once the script tag has been
+added to the page. For example:
+
+```html
+<!DOCTYPE html>
+<html>
+  <head>
+    <script type="module" src="https://1.www.s81c.com/common/carbon/web-components/tag/latest/dropdown.min.js"></script>
+    <style type="text/css">
+      // Suppresses the custom element until it has been defined
+      bx-dropdown:not(:defined),
+      bx-dropdown-item:not(:defined) {
+        visibility: hidden;
+      }
+    </style>
+  </head>
+  <body>
+    <div id="app">
+      <bx-dropdown trigger-content="Select an item">
+        <bx-dropdown-item value="all">Option 1</bx-dropdown-item>
+        <bx-dropdown-item value="cloudFoundry">Option 2</bx-dropdown-item>
+        <bx-dropdown-item value="staging">Option 3</bx-dropdown-item>
+        <bx-dropdown-item value="dea">Option 4</bx-dropdown-item>
+        <bx-dropdown-item value="router">Option 5</bx-dropdown-item>
+      </bx-dropdown>
+    </div>
+  </body>
+</html>
+```
