SUMMARY

Screenshot 2024-04-25 at 12 17 23 PM

Recently I realized that much of the content in CONTRIBUTING.md was
duplicated in docs/docs/contributing, and had evloved into much of a
complicated patchwork of semi-useful content.

How I approached it:

  • decided to make CONTRIBUTING.md a simple pointer to the documentation
    website
  • merged all information into docs/docs/contributing, tried to take
    the more complete where docs had been copy/pasted
  • review the big sub-section into a more comprehensive set
    • Contibuting to Superset: high level info and orientation
    • Guidelines: how we approach guidelines, conventions, and interactions
    • Setting up a dev envrionemnt
    • Development how-tos
    • Resources: for things like ERD, arch diagrams, ...
    • Misc.: catch all for all the rest of things that don't fit anywhere
  • I re-did the top part of "Setting up a dev envrionemnt", as things
    were confusing and wanted to point more directly to docker-compose as
    the main supported method
  • various edits

There's more work to be done here, but this seems much saner and much
more manageable.

This is great, having the docs as the only source of truth makes any future changes much more manageable IMO.

@sfirke I was thinking the arch diagram you mentioned before will fit nicely under the "Resources" section along with the ERD that's in there now.

I don't have bandwidth to review the bulk of this. I looked at a little bit of it and pointed out some small things. But I love the idea of consolidating! As people use this documentation, any issues from the consolidation will surface.
