Description
I have just gone through the onboarding process for contributing to django on windows and
noticed a couple things that could be improved
1) Add "Writing your first patch for Django" into first steps.
Motivation: Although this is mentioned in the green box above it was'nt obvious that I should start there
2)In https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/docs/intro/contributing.txt#L208 Change runtest.py to python runtest.py for windows users
as when I ran it first time it just opened in vscode and didnt run.
