New project build fails with missing slugify

[rpavlik]

I followed all the steps to create a new project with grunt-init assemble, followed by npm, bower installs, and an initial grunt run. I then removed the one-time targets from grunt, and running grunt again gave this error:

Running "assemble:example" (assemble) task
Assembling _gh_pages/about.html OK
Assembling _gh_pages/index.html ERROR
Warning: Missing helper: 'slugify' Use --force to continue.

Aborted due to warnings.

I touched the very least I could while following the directions to get here. Latest (as of today) versions of everything on Win8.1.

Worked around with npm i helper-slugify --save-dev followed by adding the line

  - handlebars-helper-slugify

to the helpers: portion of _config.yml

@rpavlik This project is deprecated. You should use assemble/generator-assemble to start Assemble projects instead.

Ah. That was very much not clear from the documentation - I hit "quick start", which then tells me there's a quicker way to do things and pointed me here.

Perhaps I'm just not up on Node.JS enough to grasp the unstated assumptions, but it seemed like there were a lot of gaps like this in the docs.
