Pull request overview
This PR addresses a “pit of failure” in the Try Aspire → Build your first Aspire app flow by explicitly calling out required setup steps before readers run aspire new.
Changes:
- Added a Prerequisites note to the C# pivot of the “Build your first Aspire app” quickstart, linking to the prerequisites and CLI installation guides.
- Added the same Prerequisites note to the TypeScript pivot for parity and to catch users entering via either path.

aspire new. This PR adds a note to both pivots to make that clear.Fixes: #1331
