<p>Changes (by Roland Haas):</p>
<p>The <a data-is-external-link="true" href="http://einsteintoolkit.org/download/" rel="nofollow">Download section</a> 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</p>
<ol>
<li>required installed software, in particular that svn from OSX does not work</li>
<li>a “How to compile” section that links to the <a data-is-external-link="true" href="https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Simplified_Tutorial_for_New_Users" rel="nofollow">https://docs.einsteintoolkit.org/et-docs/Simplified_Tutorial_for_New_Users</a> 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)</li>
<li>ideally a link to a “first steps” type document which could be part of an ET user guide described in #1804</li>
