Yeah, the mobile UX leaves something to be desired in its current state.

I’m a bit torn about next steps. I see the following options:

1. Do nothing.
2. Remove documentation from the default sidebar categories and replace it with some of the subcategories directly.
3. Stop showing these subcategory boxes altogether
4. Show them on desktop, but not on mobile (a bit of custom CSS, I think)
5. Slim down the boxes further on mobile and don’t show descriptions (a bit if custom CSS, I think)
