Documentation

Overview

This repo holds the markdown files of Steeltoe documentation in the docs sub-folder and a markdown parser console app. The app converts the markdown to HTML using the Markdig library. It also uses the contents of docs/nav-menu.yaml to create a toc.json (table of contents).

The pipeline attached to this repo creates an artifact that holds the created files, in a specific folder structure. The MainSite repository contains the release pipelines that copy the contents of this artifact into the wwwroot folder during deployment.
