🧭 Fix Left-Hand Navigation Bar in EvalAI Docs
Description:
The left-hand sidebar in the EvalAI documentation appears cluttered and unorganized. This affects usability and makes it harder for users to locate relevant sections quickly.
📸 Screenshot for reference:
🛠 Issues Identified:
- No clear grouping or hierarchy between related topics (e.g., challenge hosting vs participation vs development).
- Inconsistent naming conventions (e.g., some start with verbs, others are nouns).
- Redundant or scattered structure (e.g., "Submission" vs. "Make Submission Public/Private").
- Lack of collapsible sections for improved readability.
✅ Suggested Fix:
Refactor the sidebar navigation in the docs site with the following improvements:
-
Group content under logical categories like:
- 🧪 Getting Started (Introduction, Installation)
- 🎯 Hosting a Challenge (Host Challenge, Challenge Configuration, Writing Evaluation Script, Approve Challenge)
- 🚀 Participating in Challenges (Participate, Make Submission Public/Private)
- ⚙️ Developer Guide (Pull Request, Contributing Guidelines, Directory Structure, Migrations, Architecture)
- 📚 Reference (Cite, FAQ, Glossary)
-
Ensure consistent naming (e.g., use "Submit a Challenge", "Join a Challenge", etc.).
-
Use collapsible/expandable headings (if the documentation theme supports it).
