 This may require some guidance if you don't currently use Pandoc. I wrote a gist to help first-time users; here is [the link](https://gist.github.com/killshot13/5b379355d275e79a5cb1f03c841c7d53).
 
 ### Installation <a name = "installation"></a>
 
 Decide where the core mdEditor files should live on your local drive (reference [About](#about) for more), then clone [mdEditor](https://github.com/killshot13/mdEditor.git) to that location.
 
+Now, open mdEditor at the base directory using VSCode. Your IDE will auto-discover the `.code-workspace` file and prompt you to reopen the folder as a workspace. Confirm this choice, unless you wish to use a different configuration.
+
+If so, there is a blank `settings.json` in the `.vscode` folder for you. Otherwise, you should disregard said folder completely.
+
 We still need to pass the linting rulebook and Pandoc style guide to the editor workspace.
 
-Let's install these VSCode extensions, leaving the settings at their default values.
+You should have noticed a prompt once you entered the workspace about installing the recommended extensions. If you have not done so already, go ahead and approve the install.
+
+If for some reason you did not receive a prompt or have already closed the notification tab, not to worry. Just install these VSCode extensions, leaving the settings at their default values.
