Description
Now that the merge has occurred, our docs look a bit strange, because the instructions for running a node are split between several pages, including Merge Migration. I think it would be nice to have a page that steps through setting up a full node at a high-level, including checkpoint sync and connecting to the EL.
This would also be useful for users who want to run nodes without validating, for whom the current Become a validator page is not relevant.
Steps to resolve
- Write up a nice new page for the book on how to run a full node, including how to use checkpoint sync and connect to the execution layer. I think this should be written in a style that centres the
lighthouse
binaries and its flags, with no reference to e.g.systemd
or Docker. - Link the new page high in the table of contents. I think a sensible order might be:
- Introduction
- Installation
- How to run a node
- How to become a validator
- <everything else>
- Establish redirects from old page names to relevant new ones. The deprecated pages could live in a separate section at the very end of the book (or be hidden from the ToC?).
