 Examples demonstrating the [WebAssembly Component Model](https://component-model.bytecodealliance.org/) using [rules_wasm_component](https://github.com/pulseengine/rules_wasm_component) with Bazel.
 
+> [!NOTE]
+> Part of the PulseEngine toolchain. Demonstrates patterns used across the PulseEngine toolchain.

 ## Examples
 
-| Example | Language | Type | Profiles | Description |
-|---------|----------|------|----------|-------------|
-| `//c:hello_c` | C | Library | debug, release | Exports `greeter` interface |
-| `//cpp:hello_cpp` | C++ | Library | debug, release | Exports `greeter` interface |
-| `//go:hello_go` | Go | CLI | release | Hello world with TinyGo |
-| `//rust:hello_rust` | Rust | CLI | - | Hello world CLI component |
-| `//rust:calculator` | Rust | CLI | - | Arithmetic calculator (`8 + 8`) |
-| `//rust:datetime` | Rust | CLI | - | Shows current date/time |
-| `//rust:yolo_inference` | Rust | CLI + WASI-NN | debug, release | YOLO object detection |

 ## CI/CD
 
-This repository uses GitHub Actions for:
-
 - **CI** (`ci.yml`): Builds all components on Linux and macOS, runs Rust CLI tests
 - **Release** (`release.yml`): Creates signed releases with provenance attestation
 
-### Creating a Release
+## License
 
-```bash
-# Tag and push to create a release
-git tag v1.0.0
-git push origin v1.0.0
-```
+Apache-2.0
 
-The release workflow will:
-1. Build all components
-2. Sign them with wasmsign2
-3. Create a GitHub release with artifacts
-4. Generate provenance attestation
