+Supported Node.js and Factorio Versions
+---------------------------------------
+
+Clusterio run on Node.js v12 and up, v11.13.0+ and v10.16.0+, make sure
+to check that the Node builtin API's and npm packages you use are
+supported on these versions.  The Travis CI tests are runned on whatever
+version of Node.js v10 is the default, which at the time of writing is
+v10.18.0.
+
+For Factorio Clusterio 2.0 aims to support version 0.17.69 and up,
+including the latest experimental release.  It's recommended that you
+use the lua API reference for 0.17.69, as there's no information on what
+version Factorio API's were introduced in.  The Travis CI tests are
+runned against latest experimental release.
