After looking at the documentation I believe you're correct. I'll fix my explanation of this so it doesn't confuse. Thank you.
My reason for focusing on the command line is simply because I want the reader to focus on the code, and the nitty gritty. The possibility of mistakes is high, which they'll learn from.
Visual Studio is the greatest tool I've ever used and you can't really build anything valuable without it but as a new programmer it also serves as training wheels that can build bad habits and hamper learning. That's my reason for doing the notepad / command prompt angle.
