 #### Post Setup Requirements
 
-After you have done setting up pre-commit checks, then you may need to fulfill a few more requirements to finish setting up the development environment with `NixOS dev-shell`. These include:
-
-- `Cargo-watch` installed on your system which will allow you to auto-build the project when any checks occur in the source code files in the codebase (`websurfx` directory). Before you install `cargo-watch` on your system, make sure you have `cargo` installed on your system. To install `cargo-watch` run the following command:
+The final step is to run
 
 ```shell
-cargo install cargo-watch
+npm i -D stylelint-config-standard postcss-lit`
 ```
 
+This will add `node_modules` in the current directory.
