docs update
What is the current behavior?
The documentation imported from the arduino/Arduino wiki was mostly written when Arduino's only official development software was the Arduino IDE. This resulted in many statements that mentioned the Arduino IDE specifically, when they actually apply to other development software as well. Conversely, there were Arduino-IDE specific statements which were not qualified as such.
No
I've used the term "Arduino development software" in documentation that applies to Arduino IDE, Arduino Pro IDE, Arduino Web Editor, and Arduino CLI all.
In the Sketch build process document, it used the term "Arduino environment" three times in the introductory text, which I replaced because I wanted a consistent term throughout the documentation and "Arduino environment" seemed more vague, but if you prefer I could change all instances of "Arduino development software" to "Arduino environment" instead.
I used the term "IDE" or "IDEs" in documentation that applies to Arduino IDE, Arduino Pro IDE and Arduino Web Editor all, but not to Arduino CLI.
I wasn't sure about this line:
arduino-cli/docs/package_index_json-specification.md
Line 202 in c076ad3
