Mike Hales is working on a book-like plan, and need to have an equivalent to sections and chapters. Wiki provides no tools for categorization in this way (…). matrix ![]()
What we seem to be missing is the ability to declare a wiki page as a table of contents (TOC). What could be more obvious than using the "Welcome Visitors" page and defining a kind of map in a Markdown snippet, similar to a DITA map, a technology I have been working with for almost 20 years in the field of technical communication.
A DITA map is the mechanism for aggregating topic references and defining a context for those references. It contains references to topics, maps, and other resources. page ![]()
For example the code for an MDITA:
# Remote Lighting Network - [Introduction](introduction.md) - [Alternative lighting setups](alternatives.md) - [Low power installation](low-power.md) - [High power installation](high-power.md)
Rendered as Markdown snippet:
# Remote Lighting Network - [Introduction](introduction.md) - [Alternative lighting setups](alternatives.md) - [Low power installation](low-power.md) - [High power installation](high-power.md)
