I’d vote for (1) since it’s easy to type!

Thanks,
Ross

Sorry for the delay on the documentation update.

For getting the documentation system online, we were trying to settle on a 
subdomain.

What would people prefer we use as the official documentation location:
(1) docs.webkit.org
(2) developer.webkit.org
(3) documentation.webkit.org

(1) or (3) seems good.

Hi WebKit Developers,



Documentation is an important part of any open source project, especially for a 
larger project like WebKit. Being able to ramp up during the onboarding 
process, reading up on architectural decisions, and learning how to perform 
common procedures are all features the documentation should tackle. WebKit has 
a large set of documentation already, but it is scattered around a wide range 
of platforms (Trac, GitHub Wiki, markdown files in the code, Git commits, 
etc...), and some of the information is out of date.



A few months ago, I started working on a new documentation solution based on 
the DocC documentation framework. This provides an easy way to add and edit 
documentation through markdown files. I have already ported a large section of 
Trac, all of the GitHub Wiki, and all of the non third party markdown files in 
the code over to this platform. I have tested this on macOS and Linux and have 
found it works extremely well. (Windows should be able to use WSL2 at the 
moment, while a few remaining issues get sorted out). The only dependency for 
this project is a recent installation of Swift.



You can already download the documentation and preview it locally, but we are 
looking to publish it online for easy viewing. We were looking to get your 
feedback if we would want to publish the documentation on GitHub Pages or 
webkit.org.



The documentation source can be found at 
https://github.com/webkit/documentation<https://github.com/webkit/documentation>.

H,

It has been more than 5 months since this new documentation repository was 
announced and as far as I know it hasn't been published yet. Is there any news 
when this site will be publicly available?

Right now in Igalia we need to publish some information publicly and we were 
discussing where it's the right place to put it.

  * WebKit Documentation 
(https://github.com/webkit/documentation.git<https://github.com/webkit/documentation.git>),
 IMHO it doesn't make sense because the information needs to be public.

  * Trac (https://trac.webkit.org/wiki<https://trac.webkit.org/wiki>), since 
WebKit Documentation hasn't been published yet, the fact is that we have been 
updating Trac pages in the last months.

  * WebKit GitHub Wiki 
(https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/wiki<https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/wiki>), 
it seems like the best candidate. It says that new documentation should live 
there instead of being added to Trac. But on the other hand when WebKit 
Documentation was announced some people advocated for keep using the GH Wiki 
but that idea was discarded. It seems like WebKit GitHub Wiki is were new 
documents should be published until WebKit Documentation site is not available? 
Please confirm whether this assumption is correct or not.
