To be filled in (please edit!) with pre-reqs for setting up Electron/Node/etc. (this will be reproduced and added to the instructions for Exercise 1).

@nathos you have most of this produced already, right?

Just found it in the other thread 😄 ! Looks awesome.

@hectorsector this is where those pre-reqs can be found and easily pulled when it's time. Does that work? Or should we move it somewhere else, too?
