Context

Currently, the ThreeFold documentation at manual.grid.tf has become overly complex with too many parts and sections, creating confusion for users and farmers of different skill levels. We need to:

  • Simplify the ThreeFold Cloud product offering through clearer documentation structure
  • Create dedicated entry points for users and farmers
  • Separate basic documentation from advanced technical documentation
  • Implement Docusaurus in documentation for a modern UX

Stakeholders

  • Docs Team: Responsible for creating, organizing, and maintaining all documentation

URL Structure

  • manual.grid.tf: Welcome page with buttons leading to 3 subsections below
  • manual.grid.tf/user: Basic user documentation for deploying and using ThreeFold Grid services
  • manual.grid.tf/farmer: Basic farmer documentation for setting up and maintaining farms
  • manual.grid.tf/labs: Advanced technical documentation for both users and farmers

Requirements

User Basic Docs

  • Users can successfully deploy a VM following instructions
  • Users can set up web gateway following instructions
  • Users can configure mycelium following instructions
  • Users can configure wireguard following instructions
  • User FAQ and common use cases
  • Clear pathways for users to find advanced information at manual.grid.tf/labs when needed

Farmer Basic Docs

  • Clear instructions for setting up a ThreeFold farm
  • Basic farming operations are explained with step-by-step guidance
  • Farm maintenance procedures are clearly documented
  • Farmer FAQ and troubleshooting
  • Clear pathways for farmers to find advanced information at manual.grid.tf/labs when needed

Advanced Documentation

  • Comprehensive technical resource for both advanced users and farmers
  • Detailed development guides and advanced configurations
  • Experimental features

Technical Requirements

  • Docusaurus implementation
  • Uniform navigation and design across the three main sections
  • Mobile-friendly design for all sites
  • Functional search capability
  • Proper URL redirections to maintain existing links

Timeline

  • 3 weeks
    • Start: 25-03-06
    • End: 25-03-27
