Adds content from the recorded walkthrough that the merged post lacked:

Motivation section: the script-chain problem, human error and unnecessary reruns.
Tabbed Docker and Pixi installation.
tar_make(report_qc) to build a single target.
Outcomes of the three demo edits: change data, change model, same-result rewrite.
One object per command, and what to store.
Reports show loaded objects, not the code that built them.
File targets (format = "file").
n_hvg branching example with pattern = map(n_hvg).
Parallel computing: future used, crew untried.
R environments callout: targets does not manage them.
Limitations callout.
Two new takeaways: same-hash behaviour and code-versus-environment tracking.
