am I right in assuming nix+nixpkgs+nixos manuals and wiki.nixos.org have a lot of overlap in people contributing?

Eh, not that much. There are like 2-3 regular contributors who have touched all of them, but otherwise these are mostly disjoint groups as far as I can tell.

I mean, it's complicated. Define "a lot". There's not that many people working on documentation overall.

maybe a single gha which checks external links among all manuals + home-pages + wiki-dump could work?

I'm also interested in things like this https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nix-ecosystem-mind-map/28682/17
mindmaps, landscape, map-of-github, awesome-lists etc.

• are the graphviz graphs in that thread maintained anywhere? say in some unofficial toy repo?
• also nixos-landscape has been offline for a long time, that's a bummer

Another thing I'm interested in is to visualize/map nixpkgs health, i.e. how many packages are fresh, maintainer activity, most maintainted packages, packages without maintainers, long inactive maintainers etc. all of these clearly visible somewhere like nixpkgs.health. I see rfc 180 which adresses a few of these.

For data wrangling, you may be interested in https://github.com/Nix-Security-WG/nix-security-tracker

There's a full DB model of Nixpkgs metadata and a worker for periodic evaluations. (The end game of this would be Hydra dumping all the information directly into the database for everyone to build tools around.)

ryantm: I guess especially @pennae, who has been saying a lot that nixos-render-docs can already render with multiple pages with some small changes to the code. Furthermore Johannes Kirschbauer @hsjobeki and danielsidhion who have been investigating existing docs rendering tools to see if we could maybe not roll our own tooling at all. Your PR introduces yet another custom-built tool 😅

In reply to @phanirithvij:matrix.org
has anything been done for rendering docs in multiple pages since this discussion?

As far as i am aware no. Pennae seems to do lix now. nixos-render-docs is now kind of unmaintained?
Multipage rendering can be done, and it should be a straight forward task.
Here are the steps that i have in my head rn.

• build a table of track references (currently anchors)

• split the manual during rendering into mutliple output pages (and where each reference is located)

• make sure the references point to the correct subpage in output

• write a client side redirect script for people having the old references

@johannes.kirschbauer:scs.ems.host is there a noogle matrix channel?
