+Continuously deployed demo instances
+------------------------------------
+
+The demo instance at `latest.datasette.io <https://latest.datasette.io/>`__ is re-deployed automatically to Google Cloud Run for every push to ``main`` that passes the test suite. This is implemented by the GitHub Actions workflow at `.github/workflows/deploy-latest.yml <https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/main/.github/workflows/deploy-latest.yml>`__.
+
+Specific branches can also be set to automatically deploy by adding them to the ``on: push: branches`` block at the top of the workflow YAML file. Branches configured in this way will be deployed to a new Cloud Run service whether or not their tests pass.
+
+The Cloud Run URL for a branch demo can be found in the GitHub Actions logs.
