 ## Getting started
 
-Install with:
+#### Building Ruby GLIDE from Source
 
+> **Note**: An updated Ruby gem with the latest FFI library will be released to simplify deployment. This build-from-source approach is a temporary workaround until the official gem is updated.
+
+The public Ruby gem contains an outdated FFI library that crashes in cluster mode. Please build from source instead:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Install dependencies
+curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
+source ~/.cargo/env
+brew install protobuf  # macOS
+# sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler  # Ubuntu
+
+# 2. Build glide-core v2.3.0-rc7
+git clone https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-glide.git
+cd valkey-glide && git checkout v2.3.0-rc7
+cd ffi && cargo build --release
+
+# 3. Get Ruby source and replace FFI library
+git clone https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-glide-ruby.git
+cp ../valkey-glide/ffi/target/release/libglide_ffi.so valkey-glide-ruby/lib/valkey/
+```
+
+**Integration Options:**
+
+**Option 1: Direct Load Path (Recommended for Development)**
+```ruby
+# At the top of your application (before requiring valkey)
+$LOAD_PATH.unshift('/path/to/valkey-glide-ruby/lib')
+require 'valkey'
+
+# Now use normally - cluster mode works perfectly
+client = Valkey.new(
+  nodes: [
+    { host: 'node1.example.com', port: 6379 },
+    { host: 'node2.example.com', port: 6379 }
+  ],
+  cluster_mode: true
+)
+```
+
+**Option 2: Environment Variable**
+```bash
+# Set environment variable
+export RUBYLIB="/path/to/valkey-glide-ruby/lib:$RUBYLIB"
+
+# Or in your shell profile (.bashrc, .zshrc)
+echo 'export RUBYLIB="/path/to/valkey-glide-ruby/lib:$RUBYLIB"' >> ~/.bashrc
+```
+
+```ruby
+# In your Ruby application
+require 'valkey'  # Uses source-built version automatically
+```
+
+**Option 3: Bundler with Local Path**
+```ruby
+# Gemfile
+gem 'valkey', path: '/path/to/valkey-glide-ruby'
+
+# Or for specific environments
+group :production do
+  gem 'valkey', path: '/path/to/valkey-glide-ruby'
+end
+
+group :development, :test do
+  gem 'valkey'  # Use public gem for standalone mode
+end
+```
+
+```bash
+bundle install
 ```
-$ gem install valkey
+
+**Option 4: Docker Integration**
+```dockerfile
+FROM ruby:3.2-slim
+
+# Build process (as shown above)
+RUN git clone https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-glide.git /glide
+WORKDIR /glide
+RUN git checkout v2.3.0-rc7
+WORKDIR /glide/ffi
+RUN cargo build --release
+
+RUN git clone https://github.com/valkey-io/valkey-glide-ruby.git /ruby-glide
+RUN cp /glide/ffi/target/release/libglide_ffi.so /ruby-glide/lib/valkey/
+
+# Set up application
+WORKDIR /app
+COPY Gemfile* ./
+ENV RUBYLIB="/ruby-glide/lib:$RUBYLIB"
+RUN bundle install
+
+COPY . .
+CMD ["ruby", "app.rb"]
 ```
