Just wanted a small section (near the top) to make it easy to figure out how to get started for local development. I like most devs can figure this out but this helps very quickly all the steps necessary so there's no confusion.

Why: There are a lot of commands there. At first, I stumbled on this since I manually ran
npm run server
andnpm run watch
in separate windows until I realizednpm run start
existed (which also performed an initial build as well, which I was missing).Also, quick nit: I changed "HTMLElement Modules" to "Custom Elements" to align with more common use of the term. Also, saying "a.k.a. Web components" is fine IMHO since, while custom elements are a subset of the broader suite of web component standards, I think the custom elements API is a core part of that (shadow DOM, slots and templates are all optional).
