Beschreibung
Having a guide that explains how the index and time index work in Woodwork could be helpful as the behavior is slightly different than what users might understand from pandas.
We should explain the concept that the index and time index are determined by the presence of the `index` and `time index` semantic tags, provide detail on how to set/reset these values through various methods, and how the columns and underlying dataframe index hare handled (index remains a column in the dataframe, underlying index is set/reset in some circumstances).
Topics that could/should be covered in this guide:
- Explain how the index works in Woodwork
- What is a valid index column?
- When does the dataframe index get set/reset?
- How to use make_index to create an index if needed
- What is a time_index column?
- What is valid for a time index column?
- Cover how to set at init, set after init, change, clear for both index and time index
- Index and time index validation checks that happen by default
- Be sure to include mention of `index` and `time_index` semantic tags
