  • Split up installation and building from source.
  • Use consistent section titles.
  • Documents from jvm package are gathered into the installation guide and building from source guide.

The installation doc is split into 2 sections, one for stable release another for the nightly build. Each section contains subsections for Python, R, and JVM.

Also building from source code is now an independent page detailing the instructions for each package.

It's nowhere close to what #5282 is describing, but I think at least it cleanups the current document a little bit.

Here are the TOCs for installation and build:

  • Install
    install

  • Build
    build

* Use consistent section titles.
