[feature] docs/Getting Started: Update this guide to use at least the `cmake_find_package` generator
As the beginners are struggling with this old approach, and couldn't properly getting their things done "in the modern way". Thanks for your attention!
- [x] I've read the CONTRIBUTING guide.
We are already starting the work to re-write the whole docs for Conan 2.0, it is not worth to change it, because we are already in 2.0-alpha stage.
Thanks a lot for your continuous work and quick answer! I thought about to fight some spare time for contribution as my friend, being a novice C++ programmer, had to suffer with dependency management, and I have recommended him to try Conan, but he has not succeeded yet :(

Yes, we are aware that specially for novices it can be challenging, and the learning curve steep. Is is also challenging for more experienced users, because we are just right now in a difficult situation while moving to Conan 2.0, and the resources are not infinite, specially the "compatibility" and migration path from 1->2 is being very challenging, so it takes a ton of effort and time. Hopefully this will start to be clear in the following months.
Thanks for your kind words! :)
