joalves · 2026-01-12T17:26:01Z

Summary

This PR merges knowledge base updates from the new-kb branch into development with a clean rebase against updated development branch. The PR includes 162 commits covering documentation improvements, new features, and content reorganization.

Rebase Stats (Attempt 2 - Clean):

Total commits: 173 processed
Conflicts resolved: ~40 (vs ~85+ in first attempt with stale development branch)
Clean rebases: ~120 commits
Dropped (already upstream): ~13 commits
53% fewer conflicts than first attempt thanks to updated development branch ✅

Major Features

Anchor Redirect System: Comprehensive anchor redirects for old and new URL paths with hybrid redirect support
Glossary Expansion: Added extensive glossary entries (G through S sections)
Release Notes: December 2024 and 2025 monthly releases (Feb-Dec)
Documentation Reorganization: Moved all experiment-related docs to dedicated /experiments subfolder

Documentation Improvements

Created comprehensive guides:
- When to Abort an Experiment
- Experiment Health Checks
- Experiment Reports
- Interpreting Metrics in Experiment Results
- Creating an Experiment (complete workflow)
Enhanced existing documentation:
- Fixed broken links throughout
- Updated terminology ("Insignificant" → "Inconclusive")
- Corrected numerous typos
- Added missing images and screenshots
- Improved accessibility with better alt text

Structural Changes

File Reorganization:
Moved experiment documentation to dedicated subfolder:

docs/web-console-docs/*.mdx → docs/web-console-docs/experiments/*.mdx

API Documentation:

Organized auto-generated API docs in docs/APIs-and-SDKs/Web-Console-API/
Updated docusaurus.config.js with new paths

Third-Party Integrations

Added Zuko integration documentation
Added Teams documentation

Rebase Documentation

Complete conflict resolution log: .claude/tasks/rebase_conflicts_log_v2_85ba44f4-10ea-406a-bee0-8cc52f52c26b.md

Documents all ~40 conflicts with full git conflict markers
Shows resolution decisions for each conflict
Tracks all file renames and reorganizations

Test Plan

Verify all internal links work correctly after folder reorganization
Check anchor redirects function properly
Confirm release notes display correctly
Validate glossary entries are accessible
Test experiment documentation navigation in new /experiments folder
Ensure API doc generation works with new paths

Notes

Rebased against updated development branch (includes platform-release-notes, LaunchPad Extension, etc.)
All conflicts systematically resolved with full documentation
File renames tracked and all references updated
53% fewer conflicts than rebasing against stale development

- Add trailing slashes to server redirects to match Docusaurus URL normalization - Strip trailing slash from pathname in client-side redirect check - Add missing anchor redirects for creating-a-feature (application, targeting-audiences)

Add debug logging to understand why client-side anchor redirects aren't working

- Add anchor redirects for OLD page paths (pre-server redirect) - Keep anchor redirects for NEW page paths (post-server redirect) - Remove debug console logging - Verified all redirects work locally with test-anchor-redirects-local.js

I feel like this isn't intended?

-## Applications
-
-Here you can declare all of the platforms where your experiments may run. When
-creating an experiment, you will be asked to name all applications where the
-experiment will be run.
-


Are the removals from this file intentional?

✅ Verified in 45eeaf3 - The settings.mdx file wasn't removed, it was moved to docs/web-console-docs/Configuration/settings.mdx as part of the documentation reorganization. A redirect is configured in static/_redirects (line 13) to preserve old links.

✅ Not removed - the file was moved to docs/web-console-docs/Configuration/settings.mdx as part of the documentation reorganization. A redirect is configured in static/_redirects (line 13) to preserve all old links.

+## Special attributes

+<!--  _crawler in unit attribute
+ internal user -->


Is this an actual comment? Does it show up in the docs? If not, the special attributes header here is empty.

✅ Fixed in 45eeaf3 - Removed the empty "Special attributes" section entirely. The HTML comment was a placeholder that should have been removed.

src/anchorRedirects.ts

Please make this a .ts file if possible 🙂

✅ Done in 45eeaf3! Converted to TypeScript with proper type definitions:

Added AnchorRedirects interface for type safety

Added return type :void to function

Updated docusaurus.config.js to reference the new .ts file

—Claude (AI Assistant)

✅ Done in 45eeaf3 - The file is now .ts with proper TypeScript types and interfaces!

src/anchorRedirects.ts

+  const path = window.location.pathname.replace(/\/$/, ''); // Remove trailing slash
+  const hash = window.location.hash.slice(1);
+
+  if (!hash) return;


✅ Explained in 45eeaf3 - This early return prevents unnecessary processing when there's no anchor in the URL. If the URL doesn't have a hash (e.g., /docs/page vs /docs/page#section), there's nothing to redirect, so we exit early for performance. Added a clarifying comment in the code.

✅ Fixed in 45eeaf3 - The file was converted to TypeScript and properly formatted. No unnecessary empty lines remain.

src/anchorRedirects.js

+// Client-side anchor redirects for URL structure changes
+// This handles cases where anchor names changed or moved to different pages
+
+const ANCHOR_REDIRECTS = {


Is this all of them? 🤔

✅ Verified in 45eeaf3 - Yes, this covers all pages where anchor names changed:

Pages with anchor redirects:

Creating an Experiment - 10 anchor transformations

Creating a Feature - 6 anchor transformations

Other file moves don't need anchor redirects because:

Anchors didn't change (just file location)

Browser automatically preserves anchors during 302 redirects

Pages were merged (old anchors intentionally deprecated)

Full audit documented in .claude/audits/anchor_redirects_audit.md

—Claude (AI Assistant)

✅ Yes, this is comprehensive! Updated and optimized in commits 45eeaf3 and 666c96c.

Anchors that NEED JavaScript (9 total):

Creating an Experiment (5):

#application → #applications

#targeting-audiences → #audiences

#error-control → (cross-page) GST experiment

#sample-size-calculation → (cross-page) GST experiment

#type-of-analysis → (cross-page) overview

Creating a Feature (4):

#feature-name → #basics

#tracking-unit → #audiences

#application → #audiences

#targeting-audiences → #audiences

All other anchors: Browser preserves automatically during 302 redirects (per HTTP spec RFC 7231), so no JavaScript needed.

What's up with this file? Is it verified?

✅ Verified in 45eeaf3 - This file is properly configured with server-side redirects for the URL reorganization.

Current Status:

✅ File Syntax: Valid Netlify redirects format

✅ Destination Files: All target pages exist

✅ Source Files: All old pages properly removed

Currently using 302 (temporary) for safety during testing

Why 302 first:
Using temporary redirects during testing is best practice:

Easier to change if something is wrong

Doesn't affect SEO until we're sure it's correct

Allows quick rollback if issues are found

Next steps:
I recommend testing all redirects on the deploy preview, then updating to 301 (permanent) once confirmed working.
