Summary & Motivation

I'm a fair way through auditing old and new docs content, and have started working on figuring out how to plug the remaining gaps in new docs. To that end, I reorganized the /guides section of new docs to make it easier to move old content to the new site.

Big changes I made in this PR:

  • Moved docs from the concepts directory into guides subdirectories (automate, build, deploy, monitor, test). The guides docs already contain a lot of conceptual content; the distinction between concepts and guides seemed fairly arbitrary and not helpful for readers.
  • Added a top-level glossary page that can serve as a quick reference to documentation about key concepts, so we don't lose that aspect of having a separate concepts section. (This is currently an unlisted draft page that will be finished after more content has been moved over.)
  • Updated information architecture:
    • Moved docs into a directory structure that mirrors the information architecture of the website/URL structure to make it easier for readers to orient themselves in the docs and for contributors to reason about where to put stuff.
    • Added index pages to docs subsections so support engineerins, SEs, and others can send users and customers links to logical chunks of information.
    • Updated sidebars.ts to use autogenerated navigation whenever possible. This will hopefully make contributing to docs a little easier -- if someone adds a new page to a section, they don't need to go into sidebars.ts and manually add the page name to its section to make it visible. (Entire new sections do need to be added manually, though.)
    • Used sidebar_position in the front matter to organize the position of docs in the sidebar. Index pages use multiples of 10, while pages use multiples of 100. This give us a bit of space between sections and pages to add content as needed.

How I Tested These Changes

Local build.

Changelog

Updated beta docs directory structure, added index pages to subsections, updated page positioning via sidebars.ts and sidebar_position in page front matter, removed references section and moved YAML reference docs to guides/deploy.
