<h1>WebPlatform Docs</h1>
<p>This repository should be the replication of WebPlatform.org content and user contribution as of 2015-09-04</p>
<h2>Goals</h2>
<ol>
<li>Allow us to save on computing resources by serving static files</li>
<li>Use tools web developer already uses, ease contribution</li>
</ol>
<p>To read more about the <em>conversion process</em> we’ve been through, you can refer <a href="#how-was-it-done">How was it done</a> section below.</p>
<h2>Purpose, how to setup and use</h2>
<p>This repository contains raw documentation files in Markdown format that is used on <a href="/docs/"><strong>WebPlatform Docs</strong></a>.</p>
<p>Content is separated in multiple repositories, this one has main docs pages.</p>
<p>Planning, and discussions (“other content”) are migrated into separate repositories:</p>
<p>To get the docs pages, refer to the following git repositories.</p>
<table>
<thead>
<tr><th>Submodule</th><th>Note</th></tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr><td>(this repo)</td><td>The main docs pages</td></tr>
<tr><td><a href="https://github.com/webplatform/docs-meta" title="WebPlatform Docs exported Meta section">webplatform/docs-meta</a></td><td>Archived content that needed to be moved during mass imports. We kept them there to cherry-pick and merge into the main content section. Was accessible under the URL <em>docs.webplatform.org/wiki/Meta:…</em></td></tr>
<tr><td><a href="https://github.com/webplatform/docs-wpd" title="WebPlatform Docs exported WPD section">webplatform/docs-wpd</a></td><td>Community and notes section. Was accessible under the URL <em>docs.webplatform.org/wiki/WPD/…</em></td></tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p>To publish the site, we use a <em>static site generator</em>, see <a href="https://github.com/webplatform/generator-docs" title="WebPlatform Static site generator"><strong>webplatform/generator-docs</strong> repository</a></p>
<h2>Expected steps</h2>
<p>See <a href="https://github.com/webplatform/generator-docs#expected-steps">webplatform/generator-docs</a></p>
