Roadmaps for new users (#395)

I have added a _Roadmaps for new users_ to help people decide on their
next step. The roadmaps are primarily aimed at non-technical people.

I saw the reason for doing this after getting a few questions for
non-techies people I know about "ehhh... where do I start?" ... "I did
install the desktop software, how to get this into my cell phone", etc.

+# Roadmap for new users
+
+Welcome to Actual Budget, a delightful budgeting tool that meets you wherever you are in your financial journey.
+
+Our documentation is plentiful; getting started on the right track can be overwhelming unless you know where you are going.
+
+In other words - this very part of our documentation is for you who are entirely new to Actual.
+
+Below, we have outlined various use cases and, under each use case, give pointers to where to start.
+
+## I just want to look at screenshots before doing anything.
+
+Please take a look at our [Tour of Actual](/docs/tour/).
+
+## I want to test out Actual without committing to any work or installations.
+
+It's as simple as [trying our demo](https://demo.actualbudget.org/budget). 
+There are no strings attached; it's just a chance to explore Actual.
+
+
+## I want to run Actual on my computer.
+
+If you plan to use Actual on a single computer and don't need it on your mobile or tablet, 
+you can [download the stand-alone software](https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/releases).
+
+
+## I want the complete package but do not know how to run a server.
+
+In this case, you can use a service provider called PikaPods. Setup only takes a few minutes. 
+We have written a thorough [step-by-step guide for PikaPods](/docs/install/pikapods). 
+However, if you are adventurous or somewhat technical, please go directly to the [Actual Budget setup in PikaPod](https://www.pikapods.com/pods?run=actual).
+
+
+## I am technical and have no issues running a service on my own.
+
+Then you are in luck. We have guides for the following systems:
+
+* [Local installation](/docs/install/local)
+* [Docker installation](/docs/install/docker)
+* [Fly.io installation](/docs/install/fly)
+
+There is also an external guide explaining how to install Actual on:
+
+* [Synlogoy NAS](https://mariushosting.com/how-to-install-actual-on-your-synology-nas/) by Mariushosting.
+* [Home Assistant](https://github.com/sztupy/hassio-actualbudget) by Zsolt Sz. Sztupák.
