Installations: Overhaul Section, Rename lessons.

Describe your suggestion

The current installation lesson titles look like this:

  • Installations (Of what?)
  • Text Editors (Is this a normal lesson or an installation lesson?)
  • Installation Overview (Of what?)
  • Installing Node.js
  • Setting up Git
  • Installing Ruby
  • Project: Installing Rails (Project? Why?)
  • Installing PostgreSQL

I have three proposals:

How I'd rename them:

  • Setup: Operating System and Google Chrome
  • Setup: Visual Studio Code
  • Installation Overview: This lesson isn't an installation lesson. It's a supplement to Setup: Operating System and Google Chrome, In my opinion it's not worth to keep this lesson separate and it would be better to merge the two lessons into one lesson then.
  • Setup: Node.js
  • Setup: Git and GitHub
  • Setup: Ruby
  • Setup: Ruby on Rails
  • Setup: PostgreSQL

Alternative

If the above ideas don't get accepted, I still think that Text Editors should be renamed to Installing VSCode and Installations should be renamed to Setting up an Operating System, and Installation Overview should be renamed to Operating System Installations Overview, or the two lessons should be completely merged. The three names aren't descriptive enough. Also, I think it's worth to convert Project: Installing Rails from a project to just a normal lesson.
