The usage/ci.md page > https://agardnerit.github.io/tracepusher/usage/ci/

Currently advises users to go with the ci docker image. However, since v0.8.0, standalone binaries are now available so this is probably a better option.

We will continue to build -ci based docker images until we see whether the standalone binaries are a suitable replacement or not.

But, I believe the binaries will be easier for most to use.


Add a note at the top of the page above to explain that a standalone binary exists and that users should investigate using that first, over the ci image. Link to the latest release: http://github.com/agardnerit/tracepusher/releases/latest is a magic link which will always direct to the latest release.
