OK, sorry for the delay, I've updated the link from "get" to "download"
which fits and works nicely. I tried changing from "learn" to
"documentation" but it threw things off quite drastically. Switching
from "learn" to "docs" would be easy, would that be more clear than
"learn"?

Let me know if you want further changes,
