 ## Brief
 
-HighFive is a modern header-only C++11 friendly interface for libhdf5.
+HighFive is a modern header-only C++14 friendly interface for libhdf5.
 
 HighFive supports STL vector/string, Boost::UBLAS, Boost::Multi-array and Xtensor. It handles C++ from/to HDF5 with automatic type mapping.
 HighFive does not require additional libraries (see dependencies).
