Enhanced Installation Instructions

I've added expanded installation instructions to make Jupyter Notebook more accessible to users on different operating systems and with varying levels of technical experience.

What I've added:

  • Platform-specific guides for Windows, macOS, and Linux with clear step-by-step instructions
  • Conda installation instructions as an alternative to pip
  • Troubleshooting section addressing common installation issues and their solutions
  • Multiple installation methods for each platform to accommodate different user preferences

Why it's useful:

  • Helps new users get started quickly regardless of their operating system
  • Reduces frustration from common installation problems
  • Provides clear alternatives when the primary installation method doesn't work
  • Makes Jupyter more accessible to non-technical users and beginners

This addresses the need for more comprehensive installation guidance, particularly for those who are new to Python or encountering environment-specific challenges. By making the installation process smoother, we can help more people engage with Jupyter Notebook from the very beginning of their journey.
