README hard to understand

[lgleim]

I'm having some serious trouble understanding the three different setups and the differences between the examples you provide. I just want to generate typings for a random project on github. So do I really have to actually fork the repo on github to do this?

Do you refer to this?
https://github.com/typings/generator-typings#usage

Why do you think you have to fork the repo?
What you need to do is to create a github repo for the typings you are going to write, e.g. typed-noop2 on your github account / organization before running any of the command.
