Summary

  • establish docs/bootstrap.md as the canonical source for Homebrew and source-checkout install recipes
  • replace duplicated README, FAQ, and macOS validation command blocks with links and concise validation guidance
  • preserve the contributor-only dev profile step without repeating the full install handoff

Why

The same first-mile commands had drifted across several documentation surfaces. Keeping one complete sequence prevents future updates from leaving a shorter or incomplete install path behind.

Validation

  • git diff --check
  • /Users/rameshhp/.base.d/base/.venv/bin/pytest tests/test_bootstrap_docs.py tests/test_docs_version.py tests/test_linux_support_docs.py -q (6 passed)
  • env -u BASE_HOME ... ./bin/base-test (959 passed, 1 skipped, 1 pre-existing unrelated failure in BaseHistoryTests.test_short_time_forms_are_parsed_in_the_host_timezone)

Issue

Fixes #1943
