Yarn missing as a dependency or devDependency

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug:

Yarn is referenced in CONTRIBUTING.md prior to it being listed as a prerequisite in the documentation or in package.json. In a fresh install for example during a continuous integration build or when setting up a develop environment for the first time running the recommended command does not work.

yarn db:reset
# returns
-bash: yarn: command not found

Issue #447 references this same issue as a line item.

@ojeytonwilliams that sound good to me. Normalizing on npm, at least for now, could help close out some issues and cause less confusion.

There are a number of references to yarn in the CONTRIBUTING.md, so we’ll want to update that as well.

Given that this is generating a few issues, I played around with removing yarn locally and I couldn’t see any side-effects.

@allella would it be okay if I created a PR and pinged Fran for a review?
