 _Troubleshooting_
 
--   You may need to install `wget` in order to run `./scripts/neo4j-plugins`. You can do this with `brew` by running `brew install wget`
--   If `wget` fails, visit https://github.com/neo4j-contrib/neo4j-apoc-procedures/releases, download version `3.5.0.1` and save in `./neo4j/plugins`
 -   The `make run-db` command requires you to have an account with docker, (you should be able to do that [here](https://hub.docker.com/)) and download the the docker application (you should be able to do that [here](https://www.docker.com/get-docker))).
 
 This can be done _without_ docker if desired, by instead installing a neo4j database instance to the `neo4j` directory, the directory structure and scripts to run are the same as the docker configuration.
