Subject: [PATCH] docs: correct documentation framework from Jekyll to Hugo and
Docsy
The "Documentation Contribution Flow" section stated that Layer5
documentation "uses Jekyll and GitHub Pages to host docs sites". This
repository is built with Hugo and the Docsy theme:
- hugo.toml is the site configuration
- go.mod requires github.com/google/docsy v0.14.3
- there is no _config.yml or Gemfile anywhere in the tree
The statement was also inconsistent with its own surrounding
instructions, which already tell contributors to install Hugo and
PostCSS to build the site.
Correct the sentence so new contributors are not sent looking for a
Jekyll toolchain that this project does not use.
