Summary: This is a first step in breaking up the getting started docs. Ultimately, the React Native Android and iOS bits will become separate sections, too, but I won't to keep the diffs a bit smaller. This one doesn't really do much apart from reorganising the current content. Reviewed By: mweststrate Differential Revision: D20815235 fbshipit-source-id: 5c85b788211699a2a9f5808b9e2590c7db68a1c1

Flipper helps you debug Android and iOS apps running in an emulator/simulator or connected physical development devices. Flipper consists of two parts:
- The desktop app
- The native mobile SDKs for Android and iOS
To use Flipper, you need to add the mobile SDK to your app. If you are using React Native 0.62 or higher, this is largely done automatically for you.
The desktop part of Flipper doesn't need any particular setup. Simply download the latest build for Mac, Linux or Windows and launch it. In order to work properly, Flipper requires a working installation of the Android and (if where applicable) iOS development tools on your system, as well as the OpenSSL binary on your $PATH.
Once you start Flipper and launch an emulator/simulator or connect a device, you will already be able to see the device logs in Flipper. To see app specific data, you need to integrate our native SDKs with your app.
