 ## Requirements
 
-- Rust stable (edition 2024)
-- A terminal with ANSI support: Windows Terminal, iTerm2, Terminal.app, GNOME
-  Terminal, and similar terminals work well.
 - A reachable [Kokoro-FastAPI](docs/kokoro-fastapi.json) instance. Install and
   run it using the upstream [Kokoro-FastAPI instructions](https://github.com/remsky/Kokoro-FastAPI);
   Mudmouth uses `http://127.0.0.1:8880` by default.
