      The current driver installation instructions (http://mongocxx.org/mongocxx-v3/installation/) try to cover all permutations of O/S and beginner vs advanced use cases in a single document. This makes it challenging for end users to extract relevant instructions and there are also too many potential decisions to consider.

      It would be helpful to split the instructions into more discrete guides such as:

      • Installing on Linux with GCC
      • Installing on MacOS with Clang
      • Installing on Windows 10 with Visual Studio

      Each install guide could have streamlined default install steps with additional options listed later.
