 ## Getting Started
 
+First-time setup:
+
 - [Install Nix](https://nixos.org/download.html) & [enable Flakes](https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes)
 - Run `nix-shell --run haskell-language-server` to sanity check your environment 
 - [Open as single-folder workspace](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/workspaces#_singlefolder-workspaces) in Visual Studio Code
-    - Install the [workspace recommended](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/extension-marketplace#_workspace-recommended-extensions) extensions
-    - <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+P</kbd> to run command "Nix-Env: Select Environment" and select `shell.nix`. The extension will ask you to reload VSCode at the end.
+    - When prompted by VSCode, install the [workspace recommended](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/extension-marketplace#_workspace-recommended-extensions) extensions
+    - <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+P</kbd> to run command "Nix-Env: Select Environment" and then select `shell.nix`. 
+        - The extension will ask you to reload VSCode at the end. Do it.
+
+To run the program with auto-recompile:
+
 - Press <kbd>Ctrl+Shift+B</kbd> in VSCode, or run `bin/run` (`bin/run-via-tmux` if you have tmux installed) in terminal, to launch Ghcid running your program.
 
-All but the final step need to be done only once.
+Renaming the project:
 
-Then, before using it for real,
-
-- Rename all occurrences of `haskell-template` to `myproject`, as well as rename the cabal file to `myproject.cabal`. 
-    - To do this from commandline, run `nix run nixpkgs#sd -- haskell-template myproject * */*` 
-- Run `git add . && git commit -m rename` followed by `nix develop` (or `bin/run`) to verify that everything continues to work.
+```sh
+NAME=myproject
+git mv haskell-template.cabal ${NAME}.cabal
+nix run nixpkgs#sd -- haskell-template ${NAME} * */*
+git add . && git commit -m rename
+cd .. && mv haskell-template ${NAME} && cd ${NAME}
+```
