The existing doc guidelines page attempts to combine too many different
topics at once and includes information that does not pertain directly
to the documentation. This reorganization is intended to make each type
of information easier to find. For example, some have found it difficult
to find the documentation style guidelines (see, e.g.,
QubesOS/qubes-issues#6701#issuecomment-875875610). This reorganization
allows us to assign more specific titles to each page.
General changes:
- Create new page for contribution instructions
- Create new page for website style guide
- Create new page for continuous integration
- Rename existing "style guide" to "visual style guide" in order to
avoid ambiguity with new doc and website style guides
- Retain existing page solely for doc style guide
- Update page names and permalinks
- Update existing links
- Improve language
Doc style guide changes:
- Add section on using sentence case in headings
(see QubesOS/qubes-issues#6756 and #1173)
- Improve section organization
- Clarify language
In order to better preserve the Git history of each file, file renames
will be handled in a separate commit.
- Document template testing repos
- Introduce dom0 testing repos
- Cross-link dom0 and domU testing repo sections
- Link to template testing section from related sections
- Add pointer to installing templates
- Minor improvements and fixes
Thanks to @GWeck for pointing out the need for this in:
https://forum.qubes-os.org/t/fedora-34-template-available-for-testing/4904/4
Remove use of the phrase "GUI" and specifically speak to the "Devices WIdget." Especially since it is now referenced in the Getting Started section, which should cross-link, here.
Those are redundant, and yaml parser strips them in fact. By removing
them, loading and saving yaml file without any change indeed produce the
same output. This is useful for prepare_for_translation.py script (which
adds lang and ref tags) - to produce only change that indeed was made.

Based on examining the AwesomeWM project's web presences and Wikipedia
entry, there does not appear to be a single consistent name by which the
project refers to its window manager. All three of these variations are
used: "awesome", "Awesome", and "AwesomeWM". In order to avoid ambiguity
with the regular English word, we're opting for "AwesomeWM" in our own
documentation.
This commit also reverts the change to the widget image, since that
change was not necessary (see #1161).
Finally, this commit adds links to the KDE, i3, and AwesomeWM pages.
- Updated image to match wording to names shown above
- Edited "custom" to "unique" wrt "unique to qubes," as sdwdate is not custom _to_ qubes, but is unique(ish) to Qubes.
- Included bullet for Whonix widget, w/ link-out
- Capitalized "A" on Awesome in desktop environments
- Convert alert into text warning
(Now that every advanced page has the same sticky alert at the top,
it looks odd to have similar alerts above and below the h1 heading.)
- Update heading syntax
- Wrap text
