Built new Get Started and Starter Tutorial pages. Added relevant media files.
Update the sidebar to show the new Get Started pages, and add some new redirects to ensure we don't break backlinks to the old pages.
Deleted unused or redundant files from the top level of the /get-started directory. Created new redirects for some older URLs that are no longer in use but may still be referenced externally.
Deleted the entire 'test drive' folder, along with associated media files.
Got too excited deleting stuff and accidentally removed an image used for the Accelerate docs.
Reroute the one image file in /get-started that's used in the Accelerate docs to /vs-extension, to avoid similar confusion in future.
Should have guessed some of the older redirects still referenced the /test-drive pages.
Apparently the redirect plugin doesn't do index pages. Bit weird, but okay.

Add a link to the starter tutorial under the Tutorials category in the sidebar, for the benefit of any new users jumping directly to the tutorials.
Redo the extra appearance of Starter Tutorial in the sidebar as a link, to avoid messing up navigation.

Delete translated versions of old /get-started pages from the i18n folder, to avoid weird user experiences seeing an translation of a completely different page.
Totally needed a coffee before I started work.
Deleted files for the JetBrains Rider setup guide under the /reference path. This will be superseded by the new Getting Started guide.
Bloody outdated redirects crashing the build again.
Edited the section on installing Avalonia templates to account for templates being included with some IDEs.
Remove mention of IDE on the index page to avoid confusion.
Remove unneeded file.
Wrong symbol used before.
Added some specificity around the first step of the tutorial, and updated link to go to the relevant anchored section.
Further edits to the /starter-tutorial top page to correct errors and clarify starting state of the tutorial.
Change instructions and sample for event handler to place it under the constructor, per C# convention.
Removed mention of ReactiveUI from project setup instructions for VS.
