### Dependencies
39+
### Why?
3640

37-
You will need the following dependencies installed on your computer:
41+
It's easy to query a WordPress REST-API and map over some blog posts in JavaScript. That's where many examples on the Internet stop and you'd be hard pressed to find anything about supporting advanced features because **_headless WordPress is hard!_**
3842

39-
- [Node 12](https://nodejs.org/en/)
40-
- [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/)
41-
- [Vercel CLI](https://vercel.com/download)
43+
At WebDevStudios we believe that WordPress is so much more than a blog-- and our clients require support for things like: SEO, forms, post previews, search, comments, authentication, custom post types, custom fields, etc...
4244

43-
### Git Branches
45+
With this starter, we've figured out "the hard stuff" and placed the sum of our knowledge into something the community (and our future projects) could use as a jumping off point.

- `develop` - auto deploys on Vercel
46-
- `staging` - auto deploys on Vercel
47-
- `main` - auto deploys on Vercel
48-
- `Pull Requests` - deployment previews are automatically generated by Vercel

### How's this all work?
