Three main paths are being developed within the ELI research program for transforming driving laser pulses into bursts
of bright short wavelength radiation: high-order harmonic generation in gases, plasma X-ray sources and sources based
on relativistic electron beams accelerated in laser plasma. For each of these research areas, dedicated beamlines are built
to provide a unique combination of X-ray sources to the scientific community. The application of these beamlines has a
well-defined balance between fundamental science and applications in different fields of science and technology. Here
we summarize the current status of those user beamlines and we introduce new diagnostics devices developed within the
implementation phase of the project, namely compact XUV spectrometer and beam profiler that is using only one fixed
detector and an imaging Michelson interferometer with increased sensitivity for low density gas jet characterization.
