I like it. It reads well for the AIO installers.
The Linux instructions are missing, and the Raspberry Pi. Do those
systems need to go through the 3-step process of Install Base, Install
Qt, Install Addons? I assume so, & we need to detail those steps.
Does Raspberry Pi need a tab of its own?

Some of the old installation material was out of date and has been
discarded.
The new Quick Start instructions are very simple (and Mac should be like
Windows).
Otherwise, the detailed instructions are separate for each platform. This
should be easier to follow than the old instructions that tried to describe
all platforms together.
It is the layout that I am most concerned about, and I hope that this
layout is acceptable. Otherwise everyone is free to update the instructions
on each page.

I agree, and am now working on a new set of pages and will put them up
later today. They will not be complete, but will at least show the
arrangement that I think is needed.
Your own texts are good, it is more the layout of the pages that concerns
me.

OK; but would it be good to have these instructions listed somewhere, say
as a Quick Start page, to summarize the steps needed to get a first J
installation going?
The third sentence in the Getting Started guide reads:
Once J is installed and loaded, you can get a quick overview of the
language by selecting menu Help|Studio|Labs, and running the first few labs.
Previously a user had to read the Installation page, then the Qt Install
page, and then the Package Manager page, before they had a system where
they could do that. We don't want to go back to that, right?

I have collected everything a user needs to get a full system going.
Please consider using that as a starting point.
I disagree with what has been done, and will rearrange all these
instructions.
