This is fantastic! I think it would be nice to add a bit more info about how it works to reference the different versions. Here are some ideas, I can open a PR if this sounds good to you?

---

If your existing code references @latest, you may encounter compatibility issues with newer versions of ml5.js. For older code, navigate to index.html in the p5.js web editor (or whatever code editor you are using) and adjust the scirpt tag to reference [email protected]. If you were using an even older version, replace 0.12.2 with the version number you were previously using.

   <script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/ml5.min.js"></script>

For using the latest release of ml5.js with the new, updated models and API, you can reference 1.0.1.

   <script src="https://unpkg.com/[email protected]/dist/ml5.min.js"></script>

You can also use ml5@1 which will automatically load future 1.x releases, but this could possibly introduce things that would alter the behavior of your sketch.
