 # ONNX Runtime Node.js API
 
+ONNX Runtime Node.js binding enables Node.js applications to run ONNX model inference.
+
+## Usage
+
+Install the latest stable version:
+
+```
+npm install onnxruntime
+```
+
+Install the latest dev version:
+
+```
+npm install onnxruntime@dev
+```
+
+Refer to [Node.js samples](../samples/README.md#Nodejs) for samples and tutorials.
+
 ## Requirements
-Node.js version 12.x is required.
 
+ONNXRuntime works on Node.js v12.x+ or Electron v5.x+.
 
-### Supported Platforms
+Following platforms are supported with pre-built binaries:
 
 - Windows x64 CPU NAPI_v3
 - Linux x64 CPU NAPI_v3
 - MacOS x64 CPU NAPI_v3
 
-## Usage
-Samples can be found [here](../samples/nodejs).
-
-Install the latest stable version: `npm install onnxruntime`
-
-Install the latest dev version: `npm install onnxruntime@dev`
-
-## Build
-See [BUILD.MD](../BUILD.md#apis-and-language-bindings)
+To use on platforms without pre-built binaries, you can build Node.js binding from source and consume it by `npm install <onnxruntime_repo_root>/nodejs/`. See also [BUILD.MD](../BUILD.md#apis-and-language-bindings) for building ONNX Runtime Node.js binding locally.
