Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy/issues/52

Describe the bug
After setting up Flutter and Rust using nightly version on a clean environment, tried to execute cargo make flowy_dev (actual Step 7 from BUILD_ON_LINUX.md) I got an error stating Task flowy_dev not found

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Follow BUILD_ON_LINUX.md
Execute command from Step 7

Actual behavior
Rust throws the next error:

➜  appflowy git:(main) cargo make flowy_dev
[cargo-make] INFO - cargo make 0.35.6
[cargo-make] INFO - Build File: Makefile.toml
[cargo-make] INFO - Task: flowy_dev
[cargo-make] INFO - Profile: development
[cargo-make] ERROR - Task flowy_dev not found
[cargo-make] WARN - Build Failed.

Expected behavior
Step succeeded without any error.

oops, the folder struct has been changed. instruction didn't get updated. I will update later. Below steps should work

cd appflowy/frontend
cargo make flowy_dev

Hi @pdckxd thanks for the quick reply. This worked only for that step, right after that on step 8 this command fails with the next error

➜  appflowy git:(main) ✗ cargo make -p development-linux-x86 pb
[cargo-make] INFO - cargo make 0.35.6
[cargo-make] INFO - Build File: Makefile.toml
[cargo-make] INFO - Task: pb
[cargo-make] INFO - Profile: development-linux-x86
[cargo-make] ERROR - Task pb not found
[cargo-make] WARN - Build Failed.

However this is not related to this issue but maybe will be good to address it as part of an improvement for that linux doc.
Have a great one !

This step is actually optional. You can skip and move on

Indeed, I was able to proceed, after finishing the steps from the doc I executed flutter run from appflowy/frontend/app_flowy (not sure if this is the correct command as I'm not using any IDE and don't know exactly how Flutter works) so was able to see the app running, with minor UI bugs. Thanks @pdckxd for the help!
