Checking out the google/mediapipe repository

The organization is now https://github.com/google-ai-edge/mediapipe , not google. This puts this repo in a weird spot... haha

About halfway through the guide, expect to have it done soon. I fixed a few typos.

I currently use the Prettier formatter. Is there a specific formatting method I should use for this repository?

I knew that change was coming, but hadn't expected it this soon! I'll make updates.

For Dart formatting in this library, I let the Dart extension in VS Code auto-format everything, and then I make sure the analysis server doesn't have any warnings. The Flutter repo's own style guide is unique and we don't need to follow it here.
