 ## Requirements
  
-* [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) **v18** or above, with support for **even-numbered Node.js versions**.
-* The [supported TypeScript version](https://github.com/vendure-ecommerce/vendure/blob/master/packages/create/src/constants.ts#L7) is set upon installation. Upgrading to a newer version of TypeScript might result in compilation errors.
-* If you want to use MySQL, MariaDB, or Postgres as your data store, then you'll need an instance available locally. However, **if you are just testing out Vendure, we recommend using SQLite**, which has no external requirements.
-* If you use **Yarn**, from Vendure v2.2.0+, you'll need to use **Yarn 2** (Berry) or above.
+* [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) **v18** or above, with support for **even-numbered Node.js versions**. (Odd-numbered versions should still work but are not officially supported.)
+
+### Optional
+* [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/): If you want to use the quick start with Postgres, you must have Docker Desktop installed. If you do not have Docker Desktop installed 
+  then SQLite will be used for your database.
+* If you want to use an existing MySQL, MariaDB, or Postgres server as your data store, then you'll need an instance available locally. However, **if you are just testing out Vendure, we recommend the quick start flow, which handles the database for you**.
 
 ## @vendure/create
 
 The recommended way to get started with Vendure is by using the [@vendure/create](https://github.com/vendure-ecommerce/vendure/tree/master/packages/create) tool. This is a command-line tool which will scaffold and configure your new Vendure project and install all dependencies.
 
-### 1. Run the command
+### Quick Start
 
-```
+First run the following command in your terminal, replacing `my-shop` with the name of your project:
+
+```bash
 npx @vendure/create my-shop
 ```
 
-### 2. Select a database
+Next choose the "Quick Start" option. This is the fastest way to get a Vendure server up and running, and will handle
+all the configuration for you. If you have Docker Desktop installed, it will create and configure a Postgres database for you. If not, it will use SQLite.
