Making changes

Document Structure

  • All documentation is located in the docs folder of the repository.

  • Use Markdown files (.md) to create or edit documentation pages.

  • Maintain a clear and organized folder structure. Each major section or topic should have its own subfolder within the docs directory.

  • Add a link to the new document in the appropriate sidebar configuration file to ensure it appears in the navigation.

Writing Style

  • Follow the Markdown style guide for consistent formatting.

  • Use headings (##, ###, etc.) for section titles.

  • Include code blocks where necessary to provide examples or code snippets.

  • If you're referencing code, make sure it's up-to-date and accurate.

  • Use links for cross-referencing to other documentation pages or external resources when relevant.
