 ### Install the prerequisites
 
 1. Install [`rustup`](https://rust-lang.github.io/rustup/): the officially recommended Rust toolchain manager
-   * It's available on Ubuntu as a [Snap](https://snapcraft.io/rustup)
+   - *It's available on Ubuntu as a [Snap](https://snapcraft.io/rustup)*
 2. Call `rustup default stable` to "download the latest stable release of Rust and set it as your default toolchain"
-   * If you forget, the `rustup` [help system](https://github.com/rust-lang/rustup/blob/d9b3601c3feb2e88cf3f8ca4f7ab4fdad71441fd/src/errors.rs#L109-L112) will remind you

 3. Call `rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown` to add the [most generic 32-bit WebAssembly target](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/rustc/platform-support/wasm32-unknown-unknown.html)
 4. Call `cargo install wasm-pack` to install the [WebAssembly toolchain](https://rustwasm.github.io/docs/wasm-pack/)
 5. Call `cargo install trunk` to install the [Trunk](https://trunkrs.dev/) web-build tool
 6. Add the `.cargo/bin` folder in your home directory to your executable search path
-   * This lets you call Trunk, and other tools installed by Cargo, without specifying their paths
-   * On POSIX systems, the search path is stored in the `PATH` environment variable

 ### Play with the prototype
 
 1. From the `app-proto` folder, call `trunk serve --release` to build and serve the prototype
-   * *The crates the prototype depends on will be downloaded and served automatically*
-   * *For a faster build, at the expense of a much slower prototype, you can call `trunk serve` without the `--release` flag*
-   * *If you want to stay in the top-level folder, you can call `trunk serve --config app-proto [--release]`* from there instead.

 ### Run the engine on some example problems
 
 1. Use `sh` to run the script `tools/run-examples.sh`

 ### Deploy the prototype
 
-1. From the `app-proto` folder, call `trunk build --release`.
-   - Building in [release mode](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/profiles.html#release) produces an executable which is smaller and often much faster, but harder to debug and more time-consuming to build.
-   - If you want to stay in the top-level folder, you can call `trunk serve --config app-proto --release` from there instead.
