 # Hello World
 
-Let's look at a [Hello World example](https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+/branch-heads/5.8/samples/hello-world.cc) that takes a JavaScript statement as a string argument, executes it as JavaScript code, and prints the result to standard out. 
+Let's look at a [Hello World example](https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+/branch-heads/6.8/samples/hello-world.cc) that takes a JavaScript statement as a string argument, executes it as JavaScript code, and prints the result to standard out. 
 
+First, some key concepts you will need:
 - An isolate is a VM instance with its own heap.
-- A local handle is a pointer to an object. All V8 objects are accessed using handles, they are necessary because of the way the V8 garbage collector works.
+- A local handle is a pointer to an object. All V8 objects are accessed using handles. They are necessary because of the way the V8 garbage collector works.
 - A handle scope can be thought of as a container for any number of handles. When you've finished with your handles, instead of deleting each one individually you can simply delete their scope.
 - A context is an execution environment that allows separate, unrelated, JavaScript code to run in a single instance of V8. You must explicitly specify the context in which you want any JavaScript code to be run.
