Issue on docs: Local development instructions are missing steps

The docs say just run npm i -g mintlify
and then run mintlify dev
. That did not work for me.
After doing the NPM install I ran mintlify dev
and it asked me to install Yarn. Not really what I wanted, but there was no way around it, so I did.
I then ran mintlify dev
again, this time I got:
? yarn must be globally installed. Install yarn? Yes
added 1 package in 830ms
✖ Dependencies were not installed correctly, run
mintlify install
So I ran that. It installed another boatload of packages.
Then finally did mintlify dev
actually succeed.
I think the docs should mention that yarn is a required dependency (if that is necessary, I would prefer it was not) and the additional command you need to run to install dependencies first.
