Is the motive is to encourage more users to install the preview build? |

This feels a bit strange to be first-class in our docs. I know other products have nightly/preview builds but tend to have them more hidden in the docs versus under the Install nav. |

How does this look in the docs sidebar? It's a pretty long title

it's not great - and it might not be totally accurate. I don't think we actually install Coder with the docker run command
I'll update it (and its location) in a little bit

IMO, it should live as a notice of type "Tip" on the docker install page. And not a separate page.
not really - it should be more of a "you could do this if you need to" and not something people think is an option. I think it actually belongs more in a troubleshooting section - would that make more sense? |

Blocking to prevent an accident merge.
- Consolidates preview release installation guidance under the Docker section. - Removes the standalone page for coder-preview installation.
