Suggested improvements for page: https://opentelemetry.io/docs/collector/quick-start/
it's actually confusing, to go multiple pages, and there is no link between the pages.

Ideally I would expect like
setup collector in container application, in a single page
setup collector in non container application, in a single page
rather moving to different pages

Thanks for your feedback, @naveenkoch! We had that experience in the past where we had one page (which is now https://opentelemetry.io/docs/collector/installation/) as "getting started" but people found that hard to consume as a getting started as well. So we need to strike some balance here.

[...] and there is no link between the pages.

At the bottom of the page there is a link sending you to "explore different ways to install the collector" or would you have expected that more towards the top?

This might be possible, especially since we right now mix collector in the container with telemetrygen being build locally.

@open-telemetry/collector-approvers WDYT?
