Writing Documentation

When writing documentation there are a number of principles that should be followed. These principles are documented below.

Markdown

Documentation files are written using markdown. If you need something more complex than is possible with markdown, you can write bespoke HTML instead, however, you should aim to write as much as you can in the markdown format.

Content Files

All the source content files for the documentation site are located in the content folder. The core Vendr documentation is located in the content/core folder with supplementary package docs being located in content/packages/{package-name} and payment provider docs being located in content/payment-providers/{payment-provider-name}.

Media Files

Media assets linked to in the documentation should be stored in the media folder in the root of the repository.

Versioning

This repository contains documentation for multiple versions of Vendr and it's sub packages. Versioned docs are located in numbered directories inside each packages folder. When making changes, you should ensure you are updating the correct version before you commit your changes.

If your changes affect multiple versions, you should update the files in each version the change is required in.
