 To kickstart a new project with the CLI, we recommend running `npx checkly init`. But you can also add the CLI
 from scratch with the following steps.
 
 ## Prerequisites
 
-- Node.js `v16.x` or higher.
+- Node.js `20.19+` or `22.12+`.
 - A text editor like [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/).
 
 ## Installation

-To use TypeScript, also install `ts-node` and `typescript`:

 Create a minimal `checkly.config.ts` (or `checkly.config.js`) at the root of your project. We recommend using TypeScript.
