-## GPG verification
-
-GHCup supports verifying the GPG signature of the metadata file. The metadata file then contains SHA256 hashes of all downloads, so
-this is cryptographically secure.
-
-First, obtain the gpg key:
-
-```sh
-gpg --batch --keyserver keys.openpgp.org --recv-keys 7784930957807690A66EBDBE3786C5262ECB4A3F
-```
-
-Then verify the gpg key in one of these ways:
-
-1. find out where I live and visit me to do offline key signing
-2. figure out my mobile phone number and call me to verify the fingerprint
-3. more boring: contact me on Libera IRC (`maerwald`) and verify the fingerprint
-
-Once you've verified the key, you have to figure out if you trust me.
-
-If you trust me, then you can configure gpg in `~/.ghcup/config.yaml`:
-
-```yml
-gpg-setting: GPGLax # GPGStrict | GPGLax | GPGNone
-```
-
-In `GPGStrict` mode, ghcup will fail if verification fails. In `GPGLax` mode it will just print a warning.
-You can also pass the mode via `ghcup --gpg <strict|lax|none>`.

 ## Manpages
 
 For man pages to work you need [man-db](http://man-db.nongnu.org/) as your `man` provider, then issue `man ghc`. Manpages only work for the currently set ghc.

 If you want to know what these scripts do, check out the [source code at the repository](https://gitlab.haskell.org/haskell/ghcup-hs/-/tree/master/scripts/bootstrap). Advanced users may want to perform a [manual installation](#manual-install) and GPG verify the binaries.
 
-**Advice: Make sure to check out the [Haskell documentation](https://www.haskell.org/documentation/) after installation.**
+## First steps
+
+1. To get started with creating a Haskell project, follow the [Getting Started with Haskell and Cabal](https://cabal.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting-started.html) guide
+2. To properly learn Haskell, run through the [CIS 194 Haskell course](https://www.cis.upenn.edu/~cis194/spring13/) including exercises
+3. To learn more about Haskell Toolchain management, check out the [ghcup user guide](./guide.md)
+
+## Uninstallation
+
+On linux, just run `ghcup nuke`, then make sure any ghcup added lines in your `~/.bashrc` (or similar) are removed.
+
+On windows, double-click on the `Uninstall Haskell.ps1` PowerShell script on your Desktop.
