Hey @nataliefiann! I turned the following cleanup items into an issue #6753

Thanks for fixing those sneaky backticks! I noticed a few things that might need to be cleaned up in a follow up PR (or issue if you don't have time to work on a PR):

• Can we delete this FAQ if this content is covered in this page?
  • Before making the previous change, look at where this FAQ is referenced to make sure it works on those pages.
• The TOC to the right is wonky because of the FAQs. I suggest we downgrade the headings from H2 ## to H3 ### so they don't show up.
  • Before making the previous change, look at where those two FAQs are referenced to make sure it works on those pages.
• Starting with "Using Virtual environments," upgrade the H3 to H2
• Upgrade all other headings one level and upgrade "Activate your virtual environment" to an H2.
