Summary

Adds a Script tab at the top of the Install Flox page documenting the curl -fsSL https://get.flox.dev | sh one-liner that launched with the new get.flox.dev CDN endpoint.

  • Marked experimental with a <Warning> component (same pattern as WSL 2)
  • Covers supported platforms (macOS pkg, Debian apt, Fedora/RHEL rpm)
  • Notes the Nix caveat with a link to the Nix tab
  • Documents FLOX_CHANNEL and FLOX_VERSION override variables
  • Notes that upgrades go through the platform-specific tabs

Test plan

  • mint dev renders the new tab without errors
  • mint broken-links passes
  • Warning callout and table render correctly
  • Link to #nix anchor resolves
