Thank you Aaruni. This generally looks good to me.
One nitpick - the picture with the version number shows Oscar 1.7.0. Maybe that version is at some point in the future (a year from now, two years from now) a bit old? Maybe it makes sense to add an explaining sentence to avoid confusion?
Something like the following for example:
"At the time of writing (Feb 2026), the latest release version of Oscar was 1.7.0, as seen in the screenshot below. Right now, when you read these instructions, the latest OSCAR release is v... This is the version you should see when executing the version_info() command."
It would be good to move the image to our "blessed" organization instead of a personal repo in the long term (not for this version of the PR).

There seems to be an unnecessary amount of bloat in the docker filesystem. |

Why is the kernel named "Oscar 1.12" even though it does not provide version 1.12? Wouldn't it be better to name it "OSCAR with julia 1.12"?

what is the difference between the OSCAR variants in the notebook versus the console section? In any case, perhaps we should add a little text after the image which says: "If you accidentally started the OSCAR entry in the "console" section (instead of the "notebook" section), or any other of the listed entries, don't worry: you can just do INSERT INSTRUCTION HERE.

Thanks @aaruni96 ! |

Maybe do a global search and replace to make sure "Jupyter" is spelled consistently.
