Sounds good to me, working on it now. The current content is all notebooks,
I will move them around into other learning materials sections and update
the names to change "tour of beam" language.

We already have a Beam Overview there.
https://beam.apache.org/get-started/tour-of-beam/ contains some good Colab
notebooks, which mainly are just for Python. I suggest we link this to
https://tour.beam.apache.org/ but move the current content under Python
Quickstart.

Thanks for bringing this up Austin. I noticed this as well when I tried to
search Google for "Tour of Beam". I propose we rebrand the get started Tour
as "An Intro to Beam", or "An Overview of Beam". I'll put up a draft PR
today, and update this thread so folks can comment and review.

+1, I got confused when I first tried to navigate.
Given these examples in the former are all going to be in Colab notebooks,
I propose we name it something like "Colab Examples".

Looks like "Tour of Beam" -->
https://beam.apache.org/get-started/tour-of-beam/ is distinct from -->
https://tour.beam.apache.org/ if these things are indeed not related,
should we rename one, deprecate, or otherwise sort out the
branding/naming-conflict?

Re: Tour of Beam - an interactive Apache Beam learning guide

Some of you may not know this, but this is my personal dream project. Soon
after joining Google I thought "beam is hard to learn." I had learned Go
through the excellent "A tour of Go <https://go.dev/tour/welcome/1>", and I
wished there was something like that for Beam. A series of clear
explanations, with runnable code, and an invitation to play around and
extend the examples. I wrote up a proposal, and I've worked closely with
Alex and his team to execute this vision. The Tour of Beam has delivered on
this dream 110%. I wish this had been around when I was learning Beam, and
I am very happy that new Beam users can get great explanations and examples
in the SDK of their choice.
