Tho I think the thought for this tutorial was supposed to help onboarding beginners, it actually pissed me off.
When I ran "npm run dev" this is what greeted me:
ERROR: Task not found: "start:dev", autobuild"
Not to mention the npm-run-all should've been mentioned.
I wish writers would dogfood what the tutorials they write as this one comes off as shabby.
P.S. it's not "super simple"

Sorry you feel that way, this has very likely changed since October of last year. This article was written to be part of a series on Svelte, but I never really got around to writing it. Perhaps you'd have better luck looking for a more recent article!

In fact, once you've got it figured out I really encourage you to write a guide on setting up Svelte projects to avoid this same mishap with other folks. :) In the meantime, your comment should help people who might need to find a more up-to-date article.
