The thread Improving the documentation: Roadmap, community engagement reminded me that I am curious, how people search the current Nim documentation:
Say, I want to remind myself how tables work and I am already on a Nim documentation page, e.g. sequtils. So I use the search box on that page and type "tables".
This brings up a result page with many, many definitions related to "tables". The first result is
tables: `$`[A](t: CountTable[A]): string
The next 20 results look very similar. Of course, they link to different functions/operators, but, hey, I just want to start with general information about tables. So I click the first result, because I can see it is in the tables module. This brings me to the description of the $ operator, two thirds down the tables page.
I want to read the introduction to tables though, so I scroll all the way up to the top of the page and finally I find what I'm looking for.
This happens a few times a day when I as a Nim starter look up basic stuff in the documentation - and it feels a bit tedious. What do other (beginner) people do? Is there a quicker way to get to core concepts of the standard library?
