Awesome work so far @Adam-it! I think we'll have to adjust a few small things before we can merge it.
| ```sh | ||
| npx -y @pnp/cli-microsoft365-mcp-server@latest | ||
| ``` |

For me, we'll have to indent this code one more time to place it under the 3rd list item.
The text inside the fence can slide one indent to the left so it's aligned with the code fence signs.
| ```sh | |
| npx -y @pnp/cli-microsoft365-mcp-server@latest | |
| ``` | |
| ```sh | |
| npx -y @pnp/cli-microsoft365-mcp-server@latest | |
| ``` |

Let's use 2 space indents like we do in the rest of our docs.
| npm i -g @pnp/cli-microsoft365-mcp-server@latest | ||
| ``` | ||

| The MCP server will not do any authentication for you. You will need to first authenticate using CLI for Microsoft 365 using [m365 login](../cmd/login) command. Once you are authenticated, the MCP server will use the same authentication context. |

Could we use an admonition for this so it stands out a bit more?
| ``` | ||
| Add a new list to the site with title "awesome ducks". Then add new columns to that list including them in the default view. The first should be a text description column and the second should be a user column. | ||
| Finally, add 3 items to this list with some funny jokes about docs, added to the description column and assign my user to the user column. Use emojis 🙂 | ||

Let's remove the indent for the text inside the code fences. Let's do the same for the other code fences.
