+The tables below provide an overview of cloud instance types that have been tested for compatibility with Charmed HPC revisions. Key:
+
+* <span style="color:green">&#x2714; Compatible</span>: Fully compatible with all Charmed HPC features. No known issues.
+* <span style="color:orange">&#x25B3; Partial</span>: May be compatible with a subset of Charmed HPC features or have issues that can be worked around to allow for basic use.
+* <span style="color:red">&#x2718; Incompatible</span>: Has issues that prevent even basic use.
