LGTM as the first cheap step to get good instructions.

Suggestion 1: At some point, we should inline the contents in the main repository to avoid spreading knowledge in several
places.

Suggestion 2: The commands are mentioning a specific version of learnocaml.

(I can turn the suggestions into issues!)

FYI @AltGr I'm reworking this PR (sorry for the delay) to better document how-to download the static build artifacts from any learn-ocaml commit.

If you don't object, I will integrate this picture in the Markdown documentation:

(Stay tuned)

Yeah Github is terrible in that regard... making artifacts easily available should be a no-brainer. Even with the screenshot I am ​not sure this is a viable solution because it requires you to have an account and be logged ​into Github (and consequently doesn't work with curl, etc.)

The workaround I could find, which I used here​ is to rely on github-pages, which provides a publicly accessible space.

Sorry, I should have pointed out this possibility earlier but for some reason thought we already had a solution for this.
