-This project uses Node 16.x, if you also use a different version, look at using `nvm` to manage your Node versions.
-If you are using `nvm`, you can install the 16.x version of Node with `nvm install 16; nvm use <full version number you installed such as 16.10.0>`.
+See [package.json](https://github.com/obsidian-tasks-group/obsidian-tasks/blob/main/package.json) for which version of Node to use.
