-Run ``npm install`` in directory ``src/pybind/mgr/dashboard/frontend`` to
-install the required packages locally.
+ * Node 6.9.0 or higher
+ * NPM 3 or higher
+
+nodeenv:
+  During Ceph's build we create a virtualenv with ``node`` and ``npm``
+  installed, which can be used as an alternative to installing node/npm in your
+  system.
+
+  If you want to use the node installed in the virtualenv you just need to
+  activate the virtualenv before you run any npm commands. To activate it run
+  ``. build/src/pybind/mgr/dashboard/node-env/bin/activate``.
 
-.. note::
+  Once you finish, you can simply run ``deactivate`` and exit the virtualenv.
 
+Angular CLI:
   If you do not have the `Angular CLI <https://github.com/angular/angular-cli>`_
   installed globally, then you need to execute ``ng`` commands with an
   additional ``npm run`` before it.
 
+Package installation
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Run ``npm install`` in directory ``src/pybind/mgr/dashboard/frontend`` to
