MkDocs site built + all docs wired in + infographics embedded (2026-03-09 19:08)¶
What: Built the NeXuS MkDocs documentation site with Material theme and wired in all docs and infographics.
Why: Need a browsable docs site for NeXuS that renders all design documents with proper navigation and images.
How: - MkDocs + mkdocs-material installed via pipx inject - Site at ~/Documents/nexus-docs/, served on localhost:8000 - 14 pages across 8 sections: What Is NeXuS, Network, Security, AI, Development, Architecture, Node, Dev - 4 infographics embedded: nexus-30kft-view-blueprint, hybrid-sovereignty, project-chimera, survival-com-system - All docs given proper H1 headers - Duplicate systems-overview-nexus.md removed - Design docs linked via symlinks so edits auto-reflect - Git initialised on nexus-docs repo
To serve: cd ~/Documents/nexus-docs && mkdocs serve
Files: mkdocs.yml, docs/ (14 pages + 4 images)
GitHub Pages live deployment + homepage redesign (2026-03-09)¶
What: Deployed NeXuS docs to GitHub Pages at https://hackenstacks.github.io/nexus/
Why: User requested public docs hosting on GitHub with a redesigned homepage — 30k ft view, quick start, downloads, emoji/color/italic styling.
How:
- Created GitHub repo hackenstacks/nexus (public)
- Updated mkdocs.yml: added site_url, repo_url, emoji extension (pymdownx.emoji), attr_list, md_in_html, pymdownx.details, pymdownx.tasklist, navigation.tabs.sticky, navigation.instant
- Rewrote docs/index.md: full homepage with emojis, tabbed quick start, 4-card downloads grid, split what's-working/building checklist, 8-card docs grid, philosophy block, join section
- Ran mkdocs gh-deploy --force — pushes built site to gh-pages branch
- GitHub Pages auto-enabled on gh-pages branch
Files: mkdocs.yml, docs/index.md
