What were you trying to do
Install Zcash.
What happened
I searched duckduckgo for "how to install zcashd".
(The first two hits were bitrotted, the other was to this site, but that's out of scope for this ticket.)
The fourth link was to https://zcash.github.io/zcash/index.html which is a rendering of the book docs in this repo.
That book doesn't have any "how to install zcash" instructions. The top-level has build instructions, so I'm lead to assume we think of this book as "local docs for a source-oriented user", but since it's rendered at a nice URL, it is likely to get incoming traffic of general users. So it should have general user "how to get started" docs near the top, IMO.
