+# Knockout
+
 **Knockout** is a JavaScript [MVVM](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_View_ViewModel) (a modern variant of MVC) library that makes it easier to create rich, desktop-like user interfaces with JavaScript and HTML. It uses *observers* to make your UI automatically stay in sync with an underlying data model, along with a powerful and extensible set of *declarative bindings* to enable productive development.

+## Downloading Knockout
 
 You can [download released versions of Knockout](http://knockoutjs.com/downloads/) from the project's website.
 
 For Node.js developers, Knockout is also available from [npm](https://npmjs.org/) - just run `npm install knockout`.

 ## Running the tests
 
 If you have [phantomjs](http://phantomjs.org/download.html) installed, then the `grunt` script will automatically run the specification suite and report its results.
 
 Or, if you want to run the specs in a browser (e.g., for debugging), simply open `spec/runner.html` in your browser.
