The choice of the font in app/assets/stylesheets/variables.scss for the rule:
$fixed-width-font-family: Courier, monospace;
can make it harder to read some of the text in the documentation. This is especially applicable to the names of the configuration keys and to mentions of the shell commands, which people would usually edit in a text editor or in a shell with a monospace font. Fonts used by <code> tags are also affected.
