          Description

          The README says:
          You'll also need lessc (a LESS compiler, minimum version 1.7.0). First you need to install node.js with npm as described in their documentation

          This instruction can be improved in two ways:
          1. The hyperlink under "their documentation" is outdated
          2. It is worth mentioning that at least on some systems (eg. Debian Stretch, installation via apt-get install nodejs) one has to make a soft link called bin/node pointing at bin/nodejs. This is because SIO expects to find a binary called "node", not "nodejs".
