Previously, this was a bare list of sub-pages, not in any discernible order, and hard to parse. Now the sub-pages are grouped in sections by topic. It's unlikely to be the final word on how this material is arranged, but it's a clear improvement on the existing arrangement and provides a good basis for next steps.

The documentation in this tree is in plain text files and can be viewed using any text file viewer. It uses `ReST`_ (reStructuredText), and the `Sphinx`_ documentation system. This allows it to be built into other forms for easier viewing and browsing. To create an HTML version of the docs: * Install Sphinx (using ``python -m pip install Sphinx`` or some other method). * In this docs/ directory, type ``make html`` (or ``make.bat html`` on Windows) at a shell prompt. The documentation in ``_build/html/index.html`` can then be viewed in a web browser. .. _ReST: https://docutils.sourceforge.io/rst.html .. _Sphinx: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/
