Done

I suggest we open a new issue titled "Seed 0.7.0 post-release" and close this one.

[MartinKavik]

@Ben-PH I don't want to spam repo watchers with unnecessary notifications (like this my comment) and lose context in the new issue. Also subscribers in this issue and people landing here will have to jump to another issue to know about further progress. And there are only a few comments - it's pretty manageable.

UPDATE: Both quickstarts updated and refactored.

This can be closed as the release has long been made. :)
