Link to documentation in samples

[linkviii]

Documentation Is:

• [X] Missing or needed?
• [ ] Confusing
• [ ] Not sure?

Please Explain in Detail...

It would be useful if every sample had links to relevant documentation.

I'd be willing to contribute a first draft for every sample if you decide this is a good idea. Just need to know what the template would be before changing a bunch of files. [Put docs section at the top or at the bottom?]

Your Proposal for Changes

I'd expect https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/samples/line/stepped.html to display something like

Docs

• Line
  • Stepped

And for https://www.chartjs.org/docs/latest/samples/scales/time-max-span.html :

Docs

• Line
  • spanGaps
• Time Scale

@kurkle @LeeLenaleee how do you feel about this?

[kurkle]

Sounds good to me.

[etimberg]

@linkviii if you're still up for putting up a first draft, we'd love to look at it

[linkviii]

I guess all links should be file relative like this: ../../axes/cartesian/time.html?

Just throw them at the bottom of the file like this?

[etimberg]

I think at the bottom is fine. Relative links are better since they'll keep updating as new versions are published

[linkviii]

Huh, this is kinda a lot of work lol. Anyway my progress so far is here: https://github.com/linkviii/Chart.js/tree/document-samples

@LeeLenaleee Since the PR was merged, should we close this issue?

[LeeLenaleee]

Don't think so, while it was a good start as I commented there I think there is a a lot to improve on still so guess it's best to leave this open so if people want to extend on it they can find it more easily
