Research direction

Start by reviewing the area chart code sample and the existing documentation to identify the imports and whether Tailwind CSS is required. Add a Getting Started or Installing section with a usable template repository, and ensure the documented local setup reproduces the example.

But it would be nice to also show the imports. It looks like it has tailwind css classes, too. Is that required? Sorry if I've missed part of the docs. Would love a "Getting Started" or "Installing" section with a template repo.
