Since we cannot implement a search feature at this time, an index is needed as a quick way to find articles. This page should be a simple list that contains all of the articles in the survival guide in alphabetical order. Since we aren't sure how long the MVP will last without a search feature, the index should be easily scalable to contain a large amount of articles. A link to the index should also be placed in common locations that a user would expect a search bar.
Proposal
In the index page itself, there should be:
Page title
Top bar, footer, and sidebar that are consistent with the rest of the site
Two columns of links to all articles in the website (desktop)
Endless scrolling (desktop)
One column of all links to all articles in the websites (mobile)
No more than 25 rows of links (mobile)
Links should be listed in alphabetical order and left aligned
As for the rest of the website, the index page should be:
Linked where a search bar would be in the top bar
Accessible from every page on the website

Here's an example of an index from Fandom.
Our version definitely doesn't have to be this complex, but this contains the main elements we need.
