Update getstarted.yml: remove transaction-creation, call-to-action to… #302

Closed trentmc closed 4 years ago

… IPDB

The first part on transaction-creation ("Send your first transaction" etc) is broken because BigchainDB is no longer hosting an instance of BigchainDB software. So, remove it.

There are two network options listed. Before, one was using the BigchainDB-hosted network, but that's not running. So change the text to point to the IPDB resources page, which includes pointers to IPDB networks. Also not that this IPDB page has its own "Send your first transaction" information:)

this will most likely break things, just removing the content is not enough when removing a full page. Likewise, not clear why we would maintain the rest of the page if we want to send people to ipdb.io anyway. I would suggest ditching the whole page if there's a copy of it over on ipdb.io anyway. Alternatively, we could simply switch the endpoint to https://test.ipdb.io and the transaction tool works again over here.

Good thoughts. I agree with ditching the whole page (developers/getstarted) and send them to https://ipdb.io/resources/ which has the txs stuff. Less for us to maintain.

Should we also redirect the other developers/ pages too?
