Incomplete description on Chapter <Getting Started in a Nutshell>

[XinLanSAP]

Hi,

I encountered an issue (perhaps) and would like to get your review:

I first followed the step-by-step guide on this page: https://cap.cloud.sap/docs/get-started/in-a-nutshell, I installed Node.js, the @sap/cds-dk (using npm i -g @sap/cds-dk), and VSCode. Then I created a new project using cds init, typed cds bookshop, then cds watch. After I saved the changes in db/schema.cds, the terminal showed like attached log. After I installed sqlite3 via npm, the issue had been resolved.
