-Check latest version: 
-> In basic example, without `check-latest` flag, the action tries to resolve version from local cache firstly and download only if it is not found. Local cache on image is updated with a couple of weeks latency. 
-`check-latest` flag forces the action to check if the cached version is the latest one. It reduces latency significantly but it is much more likely to incur version downloading.
+Check latest version:
+
+In the basic example above, the `check-latest` flag defaults to `false`. When set to `false`, the action tries to first resolve a version of node from the local cache. For information regarding locally cached versions of Node on GitHub hosted runners, check out [GitHub Actions Virtual Environments](https://github.com/actions/virtual-environments). The local version of Node in cache gets updated every couple of weeks. If unable to find a specific version in the cache, the action will then attempt to download a version of Node. Use the default or set `check-latest` to `false` if you prefer stability and if you want to ensure a specific version of Node is always used.
+
+If `check-latest` is set to `true`, the action first checks if the cached version is the latest one. If the locally cached version is not the most up-to-date, a version of Node will then be downloaded. Set `check-latest` to `true` it you want the most up-to-date version of Node to always be used.
+
+> Setting `check-latest` to `true` has performance implications as downloading versions of Node is slower than using cached versions
