  2. Make your changes (add/edit markdown files in docs/). Use Visual Studio Code or your favorite text editor.
    • If you add a new page, make sure to add it to the nav: section of mkdocs.yml so it shows up in the site navigation.
    • To add abbreviations, add them to includes/abbreviations.md.
    • For markdown syntax help, see this markdown guide.
    • To learn about mkdocs-material features, see the mkdocks-material reference.
