Docs Rewrite

Open Rowlando13 opened this issue 11 months ago • 1 comments

The docs are good, but not great. Click is an awesome API so it should have really great docs.

Part I Big Swags

  • Take big swags at reorganization.
  • Rewrite sections to fit into Diataxis sections.
  • Include more examples.
  • Make the text more skimmable
  • Rewrite to make more concise and precise
  • Written to an person proficient in python, but not the command line.
  • Status: 100 percent.

Part II Nice for Long Term

  • Reorganize along diataxis sections and rewrite as necessary
    • reference
    • guides
    • explanation
    • tutorial
  • rewrite in myst if possible
  • note on landing page about type hints in docs
  • Not comprehensive, but the holes are obvious for future contributor work
  • Nice to have:
    • fully type hinted
  • Status: 90 percent.

Part I PRs

  • #2515
  • #2551
  • #2580
  • #2585
  • #2586
  • #2821
  • #2825
  • #2838
  • #2848

Part II PRs

  • #2898
  • #2857
  • #2927
  • #2925
  • #2924

At some point I stopped adding PRs since there are so many. Type hinting will not be complete as part of this. The only thing remaining is converting to myst.
