Research direction
Start by reading the existing RStudio guidance in the repository and compare its structure with the Positron resources linked in the issue. Identify PHS-specific setup or usage considerations and draft guidance that helps users get started and understand Positron's features. Done means the repository has Positron guidance with relevant PHS details and links to Posit's documentation for standard features.

Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Posit Workbench will support multiple IDEs but the guidance that exists doesn't cover any other than RStudio. Positron is a newer IDE made available by Posit, and will likely receive some interest across the organisation, with the implementation potentially having some specific differences in the PHS infrastructure that user's should know about.
Describe what you'd like
Add guidance documents for Positron, identifying it's features and comparison with other tools to support users getting started and using the application.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Linking to Posit guidance - this should be done, especially for standard features beyond the basics. However, there are like to be PHS-specific considerations, and supporting users to get started that is better covered by a PHS-owned document.
