Summary

  • This PR changes the link to our documentation on our main project to the new RTD dashboard.
  • The current legacy dashboard is going away in March 2025.
  • Why wait until the last minute?!?

README.md Outdated

I am not sure this is a helpful link for users.

https://axom.readthedocs.io/en/develop/

that is what i would expect to see. Otherwise they have to know to click the little book icon.

@white238 I twiddled with the dashboard settings. I think this is what we want now.

I am not sure how much value the second link is giving us much. They have to know to click on the book icon not the word "develop". It really isn't a list of versions, it is more of a list of builds, which a user doesn't care about.

This is just my opinion for what little it's worth.

I don't like the book icon either. But, if we don't have the second link, how does one get to a specific version?

Ah. Is that clearer? It obviously wasn't for me.

That "develop" button is handy. I didn't know about that.

This is not the ideal, but it is useful. Thank you for this, Rich.

Folks, I don't necessarily like the new RTD dashboard. If you have ideas about a better way to reference our docs on RTD, please suggest them here. Thank you.

How about just removing the link and adding a comment in the readme for where to find it on the regular RTD page?

Something like "For documentation versions other than develop, expand the sub-window on any RTD page."
