# Contributing to Tekton Documentation
If you would like to contribute to Tekton documentation, we’re happy to have your help!
Anyone can contribute, whether you’re new to the project or you’ve been around a long time,
and whether you self-identify as a developer, an end user, or someone who just can’t stand
seeing typos.
This guide covers the following topics:
- [Contribution types](#contribution-types)
- [Contribution process](#contribution-process)

## Content Guidelines for Tekton Documentation
Follow these guidelines when planning and writing Tekton documentation.
......@@ -12,16 +14,37 @@ Follow these guidelines when planning and writing Tekton documentation.
Each page in the Tekton documentation set must fall into one of the following categories:
- **Concept** - explains a Tekton concept, such as what a `Task` is or how a `TaskRun` executes a `Task`.
It can be either high-level: "Understanding the flow of data in a `Pipeline`" or low-level:
"Understanding the `SmurfCapture` method in the Smurfcaptor API".
- **Task** - contains procedures that explain how to do something in Tekton - for example, how to
create a `Task`.
- **Tutorial** - guides you through a specific journey in order to familiarize you with multiple concepts
and tasks in one go. For example, a tutorial could explain how to set up a `Pipeline` that pulls source
code from GitHub and stores the outputs in the cloud. Tutorials are self-contained and goal-focused.
- **Reference** - a collection of concepts that serves as an authoritative source of in-depth knowledge
about a specific area. A great example would be the Tekton API reference.
- **Tutorials** - These are introductory guides, focused on new users:
- Task-oriented
- Make sure it works: For Tekton, this means pick a runtime and stick with it
throughout the entire tutorial, so you can have reproducible steps that a
newcomer can copy-paste.
- Do not explain anything in detail, focus on doing. This is a common
pitfall, trying to explain things too early.
- Do not provide more than one way of doing things. Pick the easiest path and
go with it. This is another common pitfall, trying to show everything you
can do in an introductory guide.
- Show results immediately.
- **How-to guides** - These are docs that explain how to complete a particular task:
- Goal oriented.
- Assumes some knowledge from the user, no need to start from scratch.
- Focus on the goal at hand.
- It’s fine to show several ways to achieve the goal, but there’s no need to
be comprehensive. (That’s what reference docs are for).
- Provide a descriptive title.
- **Reference Guides** - These provide the technical details for everything
Tekton does. The most common example is the API reference docs:
- Be accurate
- Mirror the codebase when possible, so your reader knows what to expect.
- **Explanations** - Conceptual information:
- Descriptive content, explain how things work
- Do not include steps here
You can find an in-depth discussion about this documentation framework in the
[Grand Unified Theory of Documentation](https://diataxis.fr/).

To force and update of the local cache, use `./sync/sync.py --update-cache`.
# Tekton Website Roadmap
# Tekton Website 2022 Roadmap
We are continually working to improve the user experience on the Tekton website.
The following is a list of projects we are working on or planning to work on in the near future:
The following is a (non-comprehensive) list of things we are working on or
planning to work on in 2022:
## Tutorial improvements
- Use a single framework for all the introductory tutorials. Probably
[Kind](https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/docs/user/quick-start/), which is available
for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
We are working on revamping and updating our tutorials to make ramping up on Tekton and its components easier for new users. We want to make our tutorials easier to understand and more relatable to real life scenarios.
- Update Katakoda tutorials or look for a feasible alternative and try to keep
the content close to what the tutorials cover.
## Announcements
- Reorder the main navigation panel to a structure that follows a logical order
instead of the current one.
We're working to add support for announcements using the blog feature of the Docsy template. A blog post will be published for each release of a Tekton component describing the new features, changes, and bug fixes in that release. See [issue 218](https://github.com/tektoncd/website/issues/218).
- Update link in [tekton.dev](https://tekton.dev) to take users to the "Getting
started" section, since the interactive tutorial are currently out of date.
## Community page
- Work on a solution to communicate the status: alpha, beta, stable, or
deprecated; of the components.
- Update the website theme to the latest version of Docsy.
- Come up with a solution to avoid content drifting as the components are
updated. Try to keep the how-to always up-to-date.
## Updates to documentation structure
This structure is intended to make the documentation more friendly for newcomers
without disrupting the current content too much. We hope to reorganize the
current documentation and create new content, the site will look close to the
following (see also the [content
guidelines](https://tekton.dev/docs/contribute/doc-con-content/) to learn what
to expect from each type of document):
- **Installation** (*tutorials*) - Basic installation steps for several
components, to be used as a prerequisite for getting started. Link to the
installation readmes for further information about setup.
- Pipelines
- Triggers
- CLI
- Operator
- **Getting Started** (*tutorials*) - Guides for newcomers. Mostly "Hello World"
tutorials for every component.
- Getting started with Tasks
- Getting started with Pipelines
- Getting started with Triggers
- Getting started with Tekton CLI
- **Concepts** (*explanations*) - Details about how things work. Rationale
behind implementation decisions and anything else worth explaining.
Create a "Community" page using the community page feature of the Docsy template. The page will display content from the [tektoncd/community](https://github.com/tektoncd/community) repo. See [issue 217](https://github.com/tektoncd/website/issues/217).
- Tekton Overview
- Pipelines
- Triggers
## "Getting Started" guides for Tekton
- **How-to guides** (*how-to*) - Real-life examples.
- Build and deploy a container with Tekton.
- Setup Tekton Triggers with GitHub
- Pushing container containers images to a Registry.
- Using (cloud provider) storage with Tekton.
- Cloning private repositories.
- (New ideas and contributions are welcome)
- **Reference** (*reference*) - Detailed documentation about every component.
Mostly the current documents.
- Pipelines
- Triggers
- CLI
- Operator
- Dashboard
- Result
- Chains
- API docs (organize APIs for every project)
- **Contribute to documentation** (*how-to*)
- Run the site locally
- Content guidelines
- Formatting conventions
- Tips and tricks for good writing
## Announcements
We're working to add support for announcements using the blog feature of the
Docsy template. A blog post will be published for each release of a Tekton
component describing the new features, changes, and bug fixes in that release.
See [issue 218](https://github.com/tektoncd/website/issues/218).
## Community page
We are working on "Getting Started" guides for Tekton that will describe how to deploy, configure, and integrate Tekton Pipelines with other Tekton components to create a fully working build environment.
Create a "Community" page using the community page feature of the Docsy
template. The page will display content from the
[tektoncd/community](https://github.com/tektoncd/community) repo. See [issue
217](https://github.com/tektoncd/website/issues/217).
## Versioned URLs for the /docs folder
Right now, the website provides an unversioned URL to current release docs in the /docs folder and versioned URLs to previous release docs in the /vault folder. However, any links to docs for a given release pointing to the /docs folder become irrelevant as soon as a new release is out. To remedy this, we want to implement versioned URLs for the /docs folder as well.
