-> For the minimum supported browser versions, refer to the [package.json of this library.](https://github.com/contentful/contentful-management.js/blob/master/package.json#L12)
-
-To ensure compatibility across various JavaScript environments, this library is built as an ECMAScript Module (ESM) by default, using the `"type": "module"` declaration in `package.json`.
-
-We also offer a bundle for the legacy CommonJS (CJS) require syntax, allowing usage in environments that do not support ESM.
 
-Additionally, there is a bundle available for direct usage within browsers.
-
-For more details on the different variants of this library, see [Installation](#installation).
+Other browsers should also work, but at the moment we're only running automated tests on the browsers and Node.js versions specified above.

 ## Troubleshooting
 
+- **I can't Install the package via npm** - Check your internet connection - It is called `contentful-management` and not `contenful-management` ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
+- **Can I use the library in react native projects** - Yes it is possible
+- **I get the error: Unable to resolve module `http`** - Our library is supplied as node and browser version. Most non-node environments, like React Native, act like a browser. To force using of the browser version, you can require it via: `const { createClient } = require('contentful-management/dist/contentful-management.browser.min.js')`
 - **I am not sure what payload to send when creating and entity (Asset/Entity/ContentType etc...)** - Check the Content Management API [docs](https://www.contentful.com/developers/docs/references/content-management-api/) or the examples in the reference [docs](https://contentful.github.io/contentful-management.js) - Feel free to open an issue if you didn't find what you need in the above links
 - 😱 **something is wrong what should I do** - If it is a bug related to the code create a GitHub issue and make sure to remove any credential for your code before sharing it. - If you need to share your credentials, for example you have an issue with your space, please create a support ticket. - Please **do not** share your management token in a GitHub issue
