Syntax Widget: Content Overview #162
Description
Last update: June 14th, 2024
We've got the Syntax Lookup Widget skeleton (#114 ) in place now, so we need content writers to cover quick glance overviews over each topic.
This issue is here to collect a list of language constructs we should definitely cover. Feel free to propose more topics if something is missing. I will continuously update this issue for completeness reasons.
How to work on this?
- Check the list below (we regularly update it as soon as features get added) and pick some features you want to document
- Check out the
misc_data/syntaxdirectory for structure and inspiration - Open a PR in draft mode (target
master) as soon as possible, so other contributors see what's currently being worked on
