Reorganize docs navigation

Open mishmosh opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

This is a placeholder issue for reorganizing the Filecoin Docs, and orienting it more around helping users make technical design decisions before jumping straight to command line.

Based on a cardsort exercise by @johnnymatthews @mishmosh @TkKonstantin, here are the 6 planned high-level sections. Work for each section will be tracked in a separate issue.

  1. Overview - to come
  2. Storage - to come
  3. Developers - #1254
  4. Storage Providers - to come
  5. Protocol - to come
  6. About - to come

I love the persona based approach.

Quick update: This was initially planned well before FVM launch, so no surprise that it's not well-represented here.

However, I think there’s a pretty straightforward path to making sure FVM content is highly visible & discoverable. Build is being renamed to Developers (#1410), and we can have a 2nd-level section there for FVM. So it would look like:

  • Developers
    • Overview (#1368, live)
    • Storage (or Storage Helpers) (#1370, live)
    • FVM (new!)
    • Protocol Layer (#1407, in review)

I'd like to put FVM in it's own top-level section, if we can. We only have 4 levels of navigation (by design):

  1. Topbar nav.
  2. Sidebar nav dropdown.
  3. Sidebar nav item/link.
  4. Table of contents.

With this structure, we can have:

  • Topbar: FVM
  • Sidebar nav dropdowns: Concepts, How tos, Examples, Reference.

This structure gives us lots of flexibility to create good pages and articles for FVM.
