@JamBalaya56562 I really need to prioritize changing the readme. The reason the link points to github and not docs is because the README.md is meant for internal use, and people at GitHub may need spin up a codespace on any one of our internal repositories. It's why we have a separate contributing doc that we link open source contributors to. Because docs syncs with docs-internal, all the files have to be exactly the same, even those we keep in docs-internal for internal use.

I need to make it clearer the readme is for internal use, I just haven't been prioritizing it, but you're the third person in 2 weeks who has wanted to fix it to make it better for open source contributors. 😅 I'm going to close this PR, but thank you for opening it. 💛 That file is legitimately confusing and needs to be fixed, just not in this way.
