Clarify in the README that
brew install batterydoes not alone completely install the command line tools.I expected brew to complete the installation of the command line tools. I couldn't locate the tools anywhere. The README didn't explain clearly that
brew installcreates a macOS app that must be run to complete the command line installation.I expect many others familiar with typical projects manageable with homebrew to have the same confusion. I made very small edits on two lines in the README to address the confusion.
The homebrew cask could separately be updated to be clearer that it's not just the CLI and that the app needs to be run.
I also fixed a small vscode setting for eslint that has been deprecated since vscode 1.85 (November 2023).
