Issue Description
Difficulty: Beginner
Time: 10 - 15 hours
Description: The aim of this issue is to support the major refactor beginning across all of JuliaHealth to improve discoverability and unity of the JuliaHealth ecosystem as it pertains to documentation. This issue's purpose is to provide guidance on how one will migrate the JuliaHealth website to Documenter.jl to support a more robust documentation ecosystem. It is part of the JuliaHealth Documentation Overhaul organization project.
Requirements
Expected Outcomes
After this transition is completed, the website should go from looking like this:
To a layout that looks more like this:
Additional Notes
For how to approach this issue, I would suggest the following steps:
First, if you have never worked with Documenter.jl before, I would highly recommend these videos and resources:
Next, I would recommend creating a practice folder (repository) on your computer to download Documenter to. From there, I would follow the above tutorials and guides to create a documentation website on your own computer from scratch. Once you know how to create a documentation website, how to add pages, and how to write documentation for the website, you are ready for the next step!
Second, I would then create a fork of the JuliaHealth website. Within this fork, I would add Documenter.jl to this fork and remove Franklin.jl. You can do this from within the Julia REPL. Then, the major work begins by slowly migrating each page and entry from the JuliaHealth website to the Documenter.jl layout. This will take some time here!
Third, once you are done with this, go ahead and open a Pull Request with all your changes saved to your fork. At this point, myself or someone from within JuliaHealth (maybe @Jay-sanjay or @DilumAluthge) will review this PR to suggest changes or help with fixes. There will need to be some additional tweaks to make the documentation live by the JuliaHealth administrators so at that point, we will help to make sure it is live.
Then, you should be done with this PR!
