NEAR shell Context

[crasskitty]

As a developer using the NEAR create-near-app, I want clear context and information for what I am doing in the NEAR shell,

• Explain what this app is supposed to do
• Explain the links that pop up and what they do (or make them load when you click them) (Or hide them)
• I.e. helper.testnet.near

So that I know what I am doing.

Clarifying screenshot:

To remove the "using option" section, we need to add a quiet mode in shell which hides the extra output.

The first part of the task is complete (hiding connection options).

re clickable link copying slack conversation for context This is output that a third party npm package produces, so we can't control if it's clickable or not. @vgrichina suggested to use the -o option that opens the browser automatically. After about 1 hr of trying it: it does not integrate easily into the way the packages are stitched together in our scripts. @mikedotexe suggested, You can hit Command has you hover over the link to make it clickable, possibly Control in Windows. I tried this, and it does not work on Windows.

@janedegtiareva I used the --help command on parcel to see what options are available. --open seems to do what we want

Works on Mac, too

Estimation calibration: this turned out to be a heavy 5 due to changes in multiple projects and the need to test on different platforms due to non-trivial package.json changes.
