Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

One of the clear challenges with using the generator is ensuring that users have the latest version installed. There is tooling installed that tries to determine the latest version is installed, but it randomly fails, and tracking down why is really hard.

Describe the solution you'd like

Use npx versus npm install. npx will allow users to run the generator without installing locally. This also ensures that the latest version of the npm package is the one executed.

The scope of this update is mainly with documentation for install and use instructions.

Additional context

This update has little to no impact on how the generator is currently set up. I'd argue that we can lose the Please confirm you have the latest version installed question, which isn't really having any impact anyway.

We'd still want to support the versioning verification code as this is important when the generator is installed and working correctly.

FYI... there is nothing stopping anyone from doing this right now. This issue is to discuss if we want to embrace this and how.
