In my opinion we need to some "Getting Started" docs to help new users get productive with Windows Terminal.

Currently most (all?) the docs seem to be developer focused.

I propose to start writing some markdown. It will have a lot wrong, but hopefully it will make it easier for people to add useful information.

Just adding a help link both from the app options (and maybe a comment in profiles.json if comments are allowed) to the GitHub link would be a great small step that would really help.
