Author of the article here. Happy to see this up on HN!
The article is actually more of an annotated version of the F# Tutorial Script[0] which ships inside Visual Studio 2017 (also in other version of Visual Studio, but the Tutorial script is a bit different there).
You can get started with F# just about everywhere everywhere:
* Visual Studio[1]
* Visual Studio for Mac[2]
* Visual Studio Code (via Ionide plugins)[3]
* .NET Core and the .NET CLI (`dotnet new console -lang F#`)[4]
* Azure Notebooks (Jupyter in the browser via Azure) [5]
