-## Versioning
-The plugin combines the dozerdb-core and dozerdb-browser artifacts into an uber jar which is dropped into the Neo4j lib directory and takes control of the bootstrap process.
+## 📋 About
 
-The version uses the current Neo4j full version number and appends the final number anytime the dozerdb-core or dozerdb-browser projects have an update.
+DozerDB enhances Neo4j Community Edition with enterprise features. This project builds the plugin — an uber JAR that combines [dozerdb-core](https://github.com/dozerdb/dozerdb-core) and [dozerdb-browser](https://github.com/dozerdb/dozerdb-browser) into a single artifact.
 
-Example - for Neo4j version 5.26.22 - the first release would be 5.26.22.0.
-If a change occurs within the dozerdb-browser or dozerdb-core package - then the version would become:  5.26.22.1 and so on.
+The plugin JAR is dropped into the Neo4j `lib` directory and takes control of the bootstrap process.
 
-## Development
-Please ensure you use java 17 or above when working on the plugin.
+Visit **[dozerdb.org](https://dozerdb.org)** for installation instructions.
 
-If you would like to use an open source java version manager - please check out https://sdkman.io/
-For those using sdkman - you can use the following command to switch to the favor of openjdk that we use.

+## 🔢 Versioning
