# Chapter Reorganization Summary
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
Documentation chapters have been reorganized to better reflect the logical flow from user interface definition (.gbui files) to styling (gbtheme), followed by functionality and configuration.
|
|
|
|
## Chapter Changes
|
|
|
|
### Before → After Mapping
|
|
|
|
| Old Chapter | Old Topic | New Chapter | New Topic |
|
|
|------------|-----------|-------------|-----------|
|
|
| Chapter 4 | gbtheme (Theme & UI) | Chapter 4 | .gbui Interface Reference |
|
|
| Chapter 5 | gbdialog (BASIC) | Chapter 5 | gbtheme CSS Reference |
|
|
| Chapter 6 | gbapp/Rust Architecture | Chapter 6 | gbdialog (BASIC) |
|
|
| Chapter 7 | gbot Configuration | Chapter 7 | gbapp Architecture |
|
|
| Chapter 8 | Tooling | Chapter 8 | gbot Configuration |
|
|
| Chapter 9 | Features | Chapter 9 | API and Tooling |
|
|
| Chapter 10 | Contributing | Chapter 10 | Feature Reference |
|
|
| Chapter 10 | .gbui (was new) | Chapter 11 | Contributing |
|
|
| Chapter 11 | Authentication | Chapter 12 | Authentication |
|
|
| Chapter 12 | REST API | Chapter 13 | REST API |
|
|
|
|
## Rationale for Changes
|
|
|
|
### 1. UI Before Styling (Chapters 4 & 5)
|
|
- **.gbui files (Chapter 4)** define the structure and behavior of user interfaces
|
|
- **gbtheme (Chapter 5)** provides CSS styling for those interfaces
|
|
- This order reflects the natural development flow: structure first, then styling
|
|
|
|
### 2. Content Migration
|
|
UI-specific content from the old Chapter 4 (gbtheme) has been moved to Chapter 4 (.gbui):
|
|
- `ui-interface.md` → Chapter 4
|
|
- `html.md` → `html-templates.md` in Chapter 4
|
|
- `desktop-mode.md` → Chapter 4
|
|
- `console-mode.md` → Chapter 4
|
|
|
|
The gbtheme chapter (now Chapter 5) focuses purely on CSS theming:
|
|
- `css.md` - CSS customization
|
|
- `structure.md` - Theme package structure
|
|
- Theme examples (3D bevel, etc.)
|
|
|
|
### 3. Logical Flow
|
|
The new organization follows a more intuitive progression:
|
|
|
|
1. **Installation & Setup** (Chapter 1)
|
|
2. **Package System** (Chapter 2)
|
|
3. **Knowledge Base** (Chapter 3)
|
|
4. **User Interface** (Chapter 4 - .gbui)
|
|
5. **Styling** (Chapter 5 - gbtheme)
|
|
6. **Dialog Logic** (Chapter 6 - gbdialog/BASIC)
|
|
7. **Architecture** (Chapter 7 - gbapp)
|
|
8. **Configuration** (Chapter 8 - gbot)
|
|
9. **API & Tools** (Chapter 9)
|
|
10. **Features** (Chapter 10)
|
|
11. **Community** (Chapter 11)
|
|
12. **Security** (Chapter 12)
|
|
13. **REST API** (Chapter 13)
|
|
|
|
## File Structure Changes
|
|
|
|
### Renamed Directories
|
|
```
|
|
docs/src/
|
|
├── chapter-04-gbui/ # Was chapter-10-gbui, includes UI content from old chapter-04
|
|
├── chapter-05-gbtheme/ # Was chapter-04, now focused on CSS only
|
|
├── chapter-06-gbdialog/ # Was chapter-05
|
|
├── chapter-07-gbapp/ # Was chapter-06
|
|
├── chapter-08-config/ # Was chapter-07
|
|
├── chapter-09-api/ # Was chapter-08
|
|
├── chapter-10-features/ # Was chapter-09
|
|
├── chapter-11-community/ # Was chapter-10
|
|
├── chapter-12-auth/ # Was chapter-11
|
|
└── chapter-13-api/ # Was chapter-12
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Deleted Old Directories
|
|
The following empty directories were removed after content migration:
|
|
- `chapter-04/` through `chapter-10/` (old structure)
|
|
- `chapter-10-gbui/` (duplicate after move)
|
|
|
|
## Key Benefits
|
|
|
|
1. **Better Learning Path**: Users now learn about UI structure (.gbui) before styling (gbtheme)
|
|
2. **Clearer Separation**: UI definition, styling, and logic are in separate chapters
|
|
3. **Consolidated UI Documentation**: All UI-related content is now in Chapter 4
|
|
4. **Pure CSS Focus**: Chapter 5 now focuses exclusively on theming without mixing UI concepts
|
|
|
|

|
## Files Moved Between Chapters
|
|
|

|
|
- `html.md` → `html-templates.md`
|
|
- `desktop-mode.md` → `desktop-mode.md`

|
- `console-mode.md` → `console-mode.md`
|
|
|
|
## Updated Cross-References
|
|
|
|
All internal links have been updated to reflect the new chapter numbers:
|
|
- BASIC references: `../chapter-05/` → `../chapter-06-gbdialog/`
|
|
- Theme references: `../chapter-04/` → `../chapter-05-gbtheme/`
|
|
- UI references: Point to `../chapter-04-gbui/`
|
|
- Configuration: `../chapter-07/` → `../chapter-08-config/`
|
|
- Architecture: `../chapter-06/` → `../chapter-07-gbapp/`
|
|
|
|
## Testing Required
|
|
|
|
After reorganization, verify:
|
|
1. All links in documentation work correctly
|
|
2. Chapter flow makes logical sense for new users
|
|
3. No broken references between chapters
|
|
4. Table of contents (SUMMARY.md) renders properly
|
|
5. Cross-references within chapters are accurate
|
|
|
|
## Next Steps
|
|
|
|
1. Review the new chapter flow with stakeholders
|
|
2. Update any external documentation that references chapter numbers
|
|
3. Consider adding transition guides between related chapters
|
|
4. Update any automated documentation generation scripts |
