I am not sure I completely understand the point of this issue. Most of the items mentioned above are already present in the "Local Installation" section of the README file.

Having explicit instructions are always favorable than leaving out details. I would push for a change like this:

  1. For user's newer to git, they may not know where to find "the root of the repo".
  2. When you visit http://127.0.0.1:8080, a misleading page appears not related to this application at all.

Think about the end-user and where they might get stuck.
