Updated the Getting Started page by:

  • removing bloat
  • moving things around
  • dividing the page up with more headers

Specific changes include:

  • Listing languages/frameworks and providing links to each of their pages
  • Listing dev infrastructure and adding links where applicable
  • Divided the page into 3 headers: Setting Up, Making Contributions, Helpful Links
  • Added a bullet for VS Code users to help them better navigate the project
  • Added a section about Dev Tools and how each tab can be used when debugging
  • Removed jsfiddle bullet, and bullet about keeping a diary (not necessary in my opinion)

If anyone has suggestions for how we can further improve this page, I'm all ears!
