I just installed a fresh lighning 8.x-2.03 and had to find out that in contrast to https://github.com/acquia/lightning-project/blob/8.x/README.md#get-started drush is no more part of the dependencies in the vendor directory nor added as symlink in bin/

Is that expected behaviour? I now added the dependency on my own using composer require drush/drush.

Should the README.md be updated?

Sorry I just found #2716657: Should Lightning ship Drush at all but I think documentation has to be changed then?

Drush is a dev dependency of Lightning, and has been for months, but it is not needed in order to build a site with Lightning Project. Its README does not mention Drush, except to explain the difference between Composer commands and Drush commands. So as far as I can tell, it seems like this is no longer an issue. :)
