 ## Requirements
 
 - [React Native dev environment](https://reactnative.dev/docs/environment-setup)
-- [Node.js LTS release](https://nodejs.org/en/)
+- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) (version specified in `.nvmrc`)
 - [Git](https://git-scm.com/)
 - [Watchman](https://facebook.github.io/watchman/docs/install#buildinstall), required only for macOS or Linux users
 - [Pnpm](https://pnpm.io/installation)
 - [Cursor](https://www.cursor.com/) or [VS Code Editor](https://code.visualstudio.com/download) ⚠️ Make sure to install all recommended extension from `.vscode/extensions.json`
 
+### Node.js Version Management
+
+This project uses a `.nvmrc` file to specify the recommended Node.js version. We recommend using a Node.js version manager such as [fnm](https://github.com/Schniz/fnm) or [nvm](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) to ensure you're using the correct version:
+
+**With fnm:**
+```sh
+fnm install
+fnm use
+```
+
+**With nvm:**
+```sh
+nvm install
+nvm use
+```
+
+The version manager will automatically read the `.nvmrc` file and switch to the correct Node.js version.

 # Overview
 
 As a team of experienced developers at Rootstrap, we have spent years building high-quality React Native applications. Our initial starter kit was designed for React Native CLI apps. However, with the strong recommendation to work with Expo since React Native 0.75, we recognized the need to adapt quickly and leverage the best tools available.
