Two things the readme still said after today.

The hardware specs pause for the COM port. They did until #51. They find the board by its USB vendor ID now and skip themselves when none is attached, so the run is unattended. CONTRIBUTING already says so; the readme did not.

The three platform rounds and verify were missing. yarn test:all:mac, :windows and :linux run everything a platform can, ending with what only that platform has. verify is the shorter one before pushing.

The rest of the readme was checked against main and holds: the download line, the macOS floor, the Linux permissions section, and the dialout note.

They stopped for someone to pick the COM port. They find the board by USB
vendor ID now and skip themselves when none is attached, so the sentence
about having the hardware in front of you was the wrong way round: it is
unattended, and the board being there is what decides.

The testing section also grew the three platform rounds and `verify`,
which is what a contributor runs before pushing.
