Basic Product Documentation

I can’t speak for discourse.org but I don’t think so because https://docs.discourse.org is the Discourse API Documentation for developers. Those links are for other interests.

By the way, using those links without a useful label is rather unhelpful behaviour.

The documentation could be improved but it is a massive job for a constantly changing open-source product.

If you look at the howto category you will see a diversity of interests which cannot be catered for in one document anyway:

  • #howto:devs
  • #howto:sysadmin
  • #howto:admins
  • #howto:cmgrs (community managers)
  • #howto:faq, #howto:tips-and-tricks for everyone

There’s also an awful lot of crossover in topics and that is very obvious in other categories that impact the UX:
