infinisil: just created this: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/245358. Not sure how it interacts with https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/244056, I guess whichever gets merged first needs to take the other one into consideration Yeah, my PR will take a while still, I'll rebase it as needed :) | 10:25:12 |

 nikstur | We have some NixOS documentation outside the nixos/doc/manual tree, e.g.: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/master/nixos/modules/system/boot/loader/external Is this something we want to support/encourage in the long run? I think it's nice because it keeps the docs close to the code but on the other hand its makes it more difficult for docs contributors to find the source. | 13:44:55 |

| infinisil | nikstur: +1 from me, having documentation right next to the implementation makes it easy to update it | 13:52:04 |

yeah, if you can change 'the thing' and 'the documentation for the thing' in the same commit, that's very helpful both when reviewing it and when looking at the change in the history But this would also be possible if the docs lay somewhere completely different in the repo | 14:02:31 |

| asymmetric | Is the SE placement of the manuals something that the marketing team needs to work on (as in SEO), or is it dependent on us, for example by splitting the manual to reduce page load? | 16:43:47 |
| alejandrosame | Hello all! This issue shouldn't be too problematic, but if you have any considerations to improve the exposition I'll appreciate the feedback: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/246234 | 18:55:07 |

Is the SE placement of the manuals something that the marketing team needs to work on (as in SEO), or is it dependent on us, for example by splitting the manual to reduce page load? It seems to mainly hinge on the page size. Good tagging and summaries of smaller pages would surely have positive impact as well. | 21:26:43 |

Hello all! This issue shouldn't be too problematic, but if you have any considerations to improve the exposition I'll appreciate the feedback: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/246234 this is great - i really like the idea of labeling every (sub)section with the relevant diataxis category as a first step | 22:43:09 |
