I don=E2=80=99t think this is a good idea.  But maybe we could list use cas=
es on
the front page, with links to tutorial-style info?

For instance, =E2=80=9Cset up a development environment=E2=80=9D would link=
 to something
that explains how to use =E2=80=98guix environment=E2=80=99 in a developmen=
t context;
=E2=80=9Cdeploy an OS=E2=80=9D would link to =E2=80=98guix system=E2=80=99,=
 etc.

Then we=E2=80=99d need input from Felipe or some other web design expert as=
 to
how to integrate it.
