Despite being the best option for builds when doing continued development in the project, the documentation currently includes no reference to npm run dev. This pull request seeks to add such a mention, immediately following the initial npm run build example. In relation to the npm run build, the given text intentionally provides some contextual contrast to differentiate dev from build.

Testing Instructions:

As this pull request affects only documentation, it is not expected to have any impact on the application runtime.

Tangent:

Note: The install scripts require Python to be installed and in the path of the local system.

Is this still a thing? It took me by surprise.

I've not encountered it myself, though likely because I've always had Python available. Based on #18436, and specifically @mkaz's comment at #18436 (review), I suspect it is likely still a prerequisite to include.

This is due to node-gyp which is needed for building sass.
