Good question. As I am still learning Lean my self and there seems to be many possible choices, my guess would probably go down in history as He chose poorly.

Perhaps a vote by the community.

For tutorial I mostly like this one https://github.com/leanprover-community/tutorials as it is not tied to an IDE but if read by a new user would raise the question, where to enter leanproject get tutorials That is clearly answered in this YouTube video but a link to the middle of a video is even more confusing. Perhaps it needs a new page on the community web site https://leanprover-community.github.io/

For leanproject this one https://leanprover-community.github.io/leanproject.html is a clear leader as it is like a Unix man page but again for a new user does not explain how to install leanproject which is answered in this YouTube video. If the noted page included a section connecting the dots on what a leanproject is (think file structure with leanpkg.toml), in addition to the existing what the leanproject command does and adds a section on how to install leanproject then that would get my vote.

Don't forget there is also https://leanprover-community.github.io/install/project.html

Patrick Massot (Dec 06 2021 at 13:56):

The one you mentioned is indeed more like a man page.

Thanks. :joy:
How can I forget when I don't even know.

Patrick Massot (Dec 06 2021 at 14:05):

You should have been brought there by https://leanprover-community.github.io/get_started.html#regular-install

Eric Taucher (Dec 06 2021 at 14:50):

For leanproject I agree with @Patrick Massot suggestion of https://leanprover-community.github.io/install/project.html. It has the links to the necessary information including the other page I like.

Eric Taucher (Dec 06 2021 at 15:03):

For tutorial, https://github.com/leanprover-community/tutorials seems to be the best fit. If one follows the instructions in links all should make sense. Since the option for changes is always on the table, it can adapt to feedback.

leanproject - https://leanprover-community.github.io/install/project.html
tutorial - https://github.com/leanprover-community/tutorials

There's also an existing glossary#leanproject

Julian Berman (Dec 06 2021 at 17:50):

Which maybe should itself be updated to include a link to that project page...
