Maybe have a link off the enviroment page which links to the Wiki. I found the Wiki guides helpful for setting up, maybe just a 'Development environment in rhel' and 'Development environment in Debian' section.

Maybe: - Setup Debian - Setup RHEL - Pull Repo Should we also be encouraging users to make a github clone and work from there? I have seen that mentioned in one place, can't remember where now.
