Docs Site Implementation Plan

This page records the implementation plan that guided the site build so future contributors can extend it intentionally instead of treating it as a one-off frontend artifact.

Framework choice

The site uses Docusaurus because it supports:

  • a polished docs-first experience
  • structured sidebars and landing pages
  • MDX for richer content
  • static GitHub Pages hosting through GitHub Actions

Content included

  • SDK documentation
  • module cmdlet reference
  • walkthroughs for common lab and validation scenarios
  • polished feature and capability guidance
  • contribution guidance
  • integration and export guidance

Content intentionally excluded

  • legacy_notes
  • tmp
  • raw internal milestone archaeology that has not been rewritten into user-facing guidance

Information architecture

The top-level structure is:

  • Getting Started
  • Walkthroughs
  • Cmdlet Reference
  • User Guides
  • Capabilities
  • SDK
  • Integrations
  • Troubleshooting
  • About

Walkthrough strategy

The walkthrough section is meant to be one of the highest-value parts of the site. Each walkthrough should continue to provide:

  • requirements
  • detailed steps
  • reference scripts
  • example outputs
  • validation guidance
  • notes on when a scenario is a good fit

Visual direction

The site uses:

  • a dark-first theme
  • restrained frosted surfaces
  • soft shadows and depth
  • SVG-based product visuals rather than decorative clutter

Future enhancements already anticipated

  • richer screenshots where the product surface benefits from them
  • additional walkthroughs as new enterprise slices mature
  • optional search enhancement
  • deeper contribution guidance for docs authors
