Add getting started button #911

Closed gtsiolis closed 3 years ago

gtsiolis commented 3 years ago

This will add a secondary button to link to the new Getting Started section in the docs which mentions how you can use Gitpod.

Context: This builds on top of the original proposal in https://github.com/gitpod-io/website/issues/882#issue-759375835 and moves us one step closer to https://github.com/gitpod-io/website/issues/876.

@JohannesLandgraf WDYT? Feel free to close this if you think this is going into the wrong direction. /cc @ChristinFrohne

I as a user would be confused about the differences between try now and get started. Instead, we could add the link to the documentation to https://www.gitpod.io/#get-started

Merging per https://github.com/gitpod-io/website/pull/911#pullrequestreview-582184591. Thanks @JohannesLandgraf @ChristinFrohne for the feedback! 🙏

@ChristinFrohne regarding https://github.com/gitpod-io/website/pull/911#issuecomment-747457299, this will probably become better and more clear after the redesign but I'd suggest to avoid removing the only primary action that prompts the user to immediately open a new environment using an example project from this section. Let's discuss this in a new issue if you think it's worth putting more effort in this before the redesign. 🌱
