The Alpine Newbie Ecosystem is documentation designed so that incoming users can use Alpine. All pages will be some kind of guide to form a manual book for Alpine Linux.
Alpine is the OS (Operating System), that runs on top of your machine. Programs such as a web browser run on the OS, and web pages like "wiki.alpine.org" run over that web browser.
Keep in mind that today due to the great popularity of Docker, Alpine Linux is one of the most deployed operating systems currently in use, because within every other operating system that uses a docker, the docker image it uses is almost always Alpine Linux.
