Some introductory subtitle

TLDR

  • very brief summary of the main findings
  • any key links i.e. to forms or other things people need fill in
  • try to keep it to just three
Why should we care?
  • Brief summary of why this is important
  • any key links of background
  • We can have a bigger section on this below
Pre-requisites
  • Some information on what someone might need to be familiar with before they can use this page
Pre-requisite Importance Note
Some link to some other guide we have Necessary/Helpful Any comment we have on this
some other guide Helpful another note

Info

XKCD comics can also be great at grabbing attention:

An amusing comic about marketing

Don't forget to update the mkdocs.yml file to add this page, so it appears in the nav bar!

Here we need some bit explaining the background of the thing the page is talking about

  • keep it brief
  • make it clear what it is and what the benefit is
  • don't go into details of the methods, but perhaps highlight some of the key approaches described below

First subtitle of the main content

Talk about the issue break it down into steps.

We might even include a little diagram:

graph LR
    A[Have an idea] --> B{Make a page};
    B -->|Pull Request| C[Colleagues Review];
    C --> D[Feedback];
    D --> B;
    B ----->|Approved| E[Publish!];

Consider linking to other pages and try and extract the general concept from language specific implementations, i.e. we could have a pager about "functions", and then link to specific pages on how to do functions in Python and R.

Also, have a look on the following pages to see if they have guidance we could link to, or adapt - Quality Assurance of Code for Analytics - Turing Way - Central RAP Guidance from GSS

General subsection template

Write some content here

General subsubsection template

This might be on some specific aspect of the subsection

General subsubsubsection template

We might need to get even more specific, but probably wont use this as much!

Further subtitles

You can include code snippets inline or in blocks:

    print("hello world")

You might also want to hide large code snippets:

Some big code snippet
print("HA, I lied, it's only a small code snippet")

Note

Admonition blocks can be helpful to bring out key points

See mkdocs guidance

Further subsections

Continue to work through the subject, but we don't have to make the pages long - a short page can be just as useful!

You can include pictures, however referencing them requires a few steps back in the directory tree (see below):

image-alt-text

You can also have tabs:

We can put whatever we want in here

    def somefunc(a):
        return None

And in here something completely different, such as a diagram alt text
