Description

I've reviewed all the .md and .mdx files in the repository and fixed typos and grammar errors that clearly altered the meaning and affected the clarity of the documentation.

I also noticed some awkward wording and punctuation but left them unchanged, as they do not significantly affect readability or comprehension.

In the commit message, I briefly explained the corrections and why they were necessary to improve the overall clarity of the documentation.

Hope this helps.

"click the to the right of the line number 18" ->  "click to the right of the line number 18"

The word "the" is extraneous and does not fit grammatically in the sentence. Removing it makes the sentence clearer and more readable.
"with it's own Nargo.toml file" -> "with its own Nargo.toml file"

The contraction "it's" stands for "it is" or "it has," while "its" is the possessive form. In this context, "its" is the correct form to indicate possession.
"where the compiled code is execute" -> "where the compiled code is executed"

The verb "execute" should be in the past participle form "executed" to match the passive voice construction of the sentence.
"a collection of one of more crates" -> "a collection of one or more crates"

The phrase "one of more" is incorrect and should be "one or more" to properly convey the intended meaning.
"the compiler may fails a type check" -> "the compiler may fail a type check"

The verb "fail" should be in its base form "fail" rather than "fails" to properly match the context of the sentence.
"specially as you pass them to the" -> "especially as you pass them to the"

The word "specially" should be "especially" to correctly convey the intended meaning.
"We just need to click the to the right of the line number 18." -> "We just need to click to the right of the line number 18."

The word 'the' is repeated unnecessarily, which makes the sentence awkward. By removing the extra 'the,' the sentence reads more smoothly.
"wether" -> "whether"

The word "wether" should be "whether" to correctly convey the intended meaning.
it's own -> its own

The phrase "it's" is a contraction of "it is," whereas "its" is a possessive pronoun. In this context, "its own" is correct because it denotes possession.
[recursion reference] is invalid.
