A current list of all planned updates to our documentation for the Fall/Winter of 2024. It has been quite a while since we last released an update, and some pages especially are starting to show their age. Currently, my goal is to be all done sometime early November. Below, and commented is a list of the various changes that are planned. Please if you know of anything at all that should be added, removed, or deleted, add it below. Even if you aren't sure still add it and we can discuss. Thanks!
(Please also do not be afraid to object to any changes proposed.)

[ ] Windows (update - need to enable view file extensions to rename a file to .env in GUI)
