-If you generated static code using the CLI to `bundle.js` and its type definitions to `bundle.d.ts`, then you can do:
+**Note:** Dynamically generated runtime message classes cannot be typed, technically, so you must either access its fields using `message["awesomeField"]` notation or you can utilize [typings of its static counterpart](https://github.com/dcodeIO/protobuf.js/tree/master/cli#pbts) for full typings support.

-**Note:** By default, the npm package ships with long.js including its typings and node typing as optional dependencies. However, where long.js and/or node Buffers are not required, there are two stubs available that can be referenced instead of the full type definitions:
+**Note:** When using [long.js](https://github.com/dcodeIO/long.js), make sure to add [@types/long](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@types/long) to your project's dependencies. Likewise, when building for node, make sure to add [@types/node](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@types/node). Alternatively, if you are not using one of these, there are two stubs available that can be referenced instead of the respective full type definition:
 
 ```ts
 /// <reference path="./node_modules/protobufjs/stub-long.d.ts" />
