Pull Request Description

What and why?

sc-15290

There was a story open for adding variables to broadcast steps, but that was already covered in the docs. I did notice that the following needed to be updated:

  • Missing references to artifact workflows alongside model workflows (my bad, I missed these on the first pass of the feature release)
  • New functionality for viewing, sorting, and filtering workflows (alongside updated new workflows interface)
  • Some display issues for things that shouldn't be showing up and breadcrumbs on some pages

PR Summary

This pull request refactors several documentation files to improve the presentation and clarity of content across the site. Key changes include:

  • Updating glossary entries to support conditional visibility using custom metadata tags. For pages tagged with includes: glossary, a version of the content with enhanced descriptions is shown, while a simpler version is displayed otherwise.
  • Refining the content in the glossary template by separating sections into those visible only when certain metadata is present versus when it is not, ensuring clearer differentiation for users.
  • Adjusting the title in the About page from using a dynamic variable to a static string, which helps fix breadcrumb issues.
  • Revising workflow documentation. The modifications now use terms like "Inventory Model" and "Artifact" instead of "Model Workflows" and "Artifact Workflows", and update instructions to create, clone, and manage workflows. This enhances consistency and usability in the governance section's instructions.
  • Updating the conditional requirements and notification sections in the workflow steps documentation to incorporate references to both model and artifact fields, ensuring that links and guidelines are up-to-date.
  • Additional minor adjustments ensure correct linking and improved readability overall.

Overall, these enhancements streamline the user guidance in the documentation and improve the delivery of context-specific content based on metadata tags.

Test Suggestions

  • Verify that on pages with the custom metadata tag (includes.glossary set to true), the detailed glossary content is properly rendered, and that alternative content is shown when the tag is absent.
  • Check that the About page correctly displays the static title 'About ValidMind' and that the breadcrumb is rendered as expected.
  • Test the workflow documentation pages to ensure that the updated instructions and labels (e.g., 'Inventory Model' and 'Artifact') appear correctly and that all new links work as intended.
  • Ensure that the conditional visibility blocks in the glossary and template files behave correctly in various output formats (HTML and revealjs).
  • Review the formatting and rendering of markdown content in different contexts to ensure consistency and no regression in existing documentation.
