This directory contains extra files for modifying the look and functionality of mdbook, the documentation software that's used to generate Synapse's documentation website.
The configuration options in the output.html
section of book.toml
point to additional JS/CSS in this directory that are added on each page load. In
addition, the theme
directory contains files that overwrite their counterparts in
each of the default themes included with mdbook.
Currently we use these files to generate a floating Table of Contents panel. The code for
which was partially taken from
JorelAli/mdBook-pagetoc
before being modified such that it scrolls with the content of the page. This is handled
by the table-of-contents.js/css
files. The table of contents panel only appears on pages
that have more than one header, as well as only appearing on desktop-sized monitors.
We remove the navigation arrows which typically appear on the left and right side of the
screen on desktop as they interfere with the table of contents. This is handled by
the remove-nav-buttons.css
file.
Finally, we also stylise the chapter titles in the left sidebar by indenting them
slightly so that they are more visually distinguishable from the section headers
(the bold titles). This is done through the indent-section-headers.css
file.
More information can be found in mdbook's official documentation for injecting page JS/CSS and customising the default themes.
