     Type:  enhancement              |      Status:  new                
 Priority:  major                    |   Milestone:                     
Component:  EinsteinToolkit website  |     Version:  development version
 Keywords:                           |  
-------------------------------------+--------------------------------------
 The [http://einsteintoolkit.org/download/ Download section] of our website
 does not give any hint on how to compile the code after a (possibly)
 successful download. It should contain some additional sections

 1. required installed software, in particular that svn from OSX does not
 work
 1. a "How to compile" section that links to the
 [https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-
 docs/Simplified_Tutorial_for_New_Users simplified tutorial] (preferred) or
 the regular tutorial (not preferred since this one requires them to get an
 account on Queenbee where they would have to download once more)
 1. ideally a link to a "first steps" type document which could be part of
 an ET user guide described in #1804
