Hello @StarScream159.
Thank you for writing up this issue, I'll gladly help explain things further to you.
The "Use this template" button is a shortcut to clone the repository under your Github account. The detail wasn't fleshed out as many users are already familiar with cloning repositories, but I have added more clarification to the readme to assist you and others who may have the same question.
You click on that button and give the repository a name and privacy level (public or private), and then create it. At this point, you have your own clone of the repository and can do with it what you wish. An alternative to do this is to clone the repository through the command line, under the hood they are doing the same thing.
To install dependencies for the project, simply run npm i
which is short for npm install
which installs all npm dependencies. As you've seen, npm run dev
builds and runs the project in a development mode which allows you to start using the template and modify it to your heart's content.
The additional commands you can use are found here. There is one for running your app in production, and a few for building your app for distribution to others. The command to package your app uses the production build command, so you can run the production build command to test what it will look like for an end user without packaging the app if you wish.
Note: there are more commands in the package.json file but those are supplementary and you don't need to call them by themselves. You can look if you are curious of what they are of course.
I've added content to the faq letting you know what files you can remove.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions 😄.

Thanks so much. I'll close this issue as that makes a lot more sense.
