Some initial feedback (based on my first impressions):
- You open the page with a section entitled "Quickstart", which (IMHO) is what it should be. So why not rename the page as Quickstart?
- I think that we should have a single Quickstart page (not a section with subpages).
- The page looks "heavy":
- I'd vote to refer to an "Install" step with instructions from another page (like https://etcd.io/docs/v3.4/dl-build/ or an equivalent / improved "Install" page).
- Formatting the steps are markdown numbered list entries would help make the page lighter.

As I mentioned out-of-band, I think that the most important is to agree on the following, first: section vs. single page -- I don't think that we need more than one such page. (I think that Get started is fine as a name.)
For more detailed comments about the Get started page, see my inlined comments.
Thanks!

new deploy preview: https://deploy-preview-278--etcd.netlify.app/docs/next/quickstart/ |
A lot of this has come from the http://play.etcd.io/install page, but I'm not sure I want to link to it as it's not wholly correct (some links are still pointing at coreos for example)
I'm not sure what you mean here. |

I'm not sure if 'Quickstart' should be in the top nav, or linked as another button alongside |

With the added link to run etcd from main branch, I am good with the changes. lgtm. Thanks!

A first quick comment (more to come): I believe that the best place to add a link to the Quickstart page is via the CTA button on the homepage, replacing the "Docs (->)" button.
I'd vote to exclude the Quickstart link from the top-nav.
In an alternate universe maybe 😄 |
I think that's a good place for it too. I'll make that update.

I think that we can be gentler here and invite the reader to do something.
Learn about more ways to configure and use etcd from the following pages:
