[jira] [Commented] (MESOS-8117) Update Getting Started
documentation
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-8117?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16212940#comment-16212940 ]

Moved building docs to `building.md`.
The existing "Getting Started" documentation does not cover how to "get
started" with Mesos, but instead how to build it from source on multiple
platforms. Also added a link to `configuration.md` in the build
documentation section, as it was not obvious.

Added the Getting Started landing page.
After moving the build documentation to its own page, we can now have a
real "Getting Started" page suitable for anyone to get started with
Mesos. It is purposefully short, and therefore not overwhelming.

> Our "getting started" landing page is not how to get started on Mesos, it's how to build. Build instructions should exist in their own file, and the getting started page should be more like a landing page such as the community page is. As someone who has onboarded other developers, I speak from experience saying we need real "getting started" info.
> This work was started at the docathon at Mesosphere a couple weeks ago.
