Documentation Sctructure

All documents are based on YAML frontmatter and GFM (GitHub Flavored Markdown Specification). A few enhanced markdown features are also provided in addition to some custom shortcodes.

Every document must have it's own folder/directory. The folder name must be in the format of xx.my-folder-name where xx is a numeric position. The folder name becomes the pages slug/url and must be lower case with no spaces or other characters. Using a dash (-) to simulate a space is highly recomended for URL readability.

Documents must be named article.md and placed into the document folder. Supporting images and files can also be placed into the same folder.

Tips and Tricks

On any PIVX Documentation page, click the git icon to view the page on github, then click the "Raw" button. (See image below.)

git-raw

This reveals the pages YAML and Markdown code:

git-markdown

The only required YAML frontmatter is the title and is always placed at the top of the document

---
title: 'This is My Page Title'
