What about having a category in Meta for documentation about the platform?

+5
−0

I keep learning about the hard work that has been done in Codidact over time. There are many little things that are known by the veterans, but may not be easy to understand for the newcomers like me.

For example, yesterday I learnt that the Table of contents below a question shows by default if there are at least 5 answers, but it can be configured by community.

These little pieces of information are worth writing down somewhere. For this, what about having a Documentation of the platform in a format of just a post (no need for a Q&A pair, like in the Resources category of Languages & Linguistics) for example with a Category here in Meta?

It sounds like you want indexed documentation, not a FAQ.

@Olin Lathrop you are right, updated. Also, I noticed categories can consist in just a post, no need to Q&A, so I also included that in.
