Yes, good question.  It doesn’t take sense to me to explain how to use
each IDE in the tutorial, so I left it oriented to command-line/NPM which
I think will be how you are set up after following the Get
Started/Download sections.

Maybe GetStarted should have other Get Started With Moonshine, Get Started
with VSCode, Get Started with Flash Builder, and we can also write
separate Tutorial with Moonshine, Tutorial with Moonshine, Tutorial with
Flash Builder sections?

Up to you, really.

My 2 cents,
-Alex
