Description

Right now all the documentation for this library is in README.md. It's getting pretty unwieldy at this point, and should really probably be moved into a hosted page somewhere.

I've used readthedocs.org before, and it works pretty well. We'll have to refactor the README documentation into sphinx documentation first, but that shouldn't be too tricky.

Tasks:

  • refactor documentation into a docs/ folder, using sphinx
  • enable/connect readthedocs
  • update README.md
    • to point to the hosted documentation
    • to only have a feature overview and basic quickstart
  • (maybe) update repo description with the docs link

Research direction

Start with README.md and review the existing documentation structure before creating the planned docs/ folder with Sphinx. Configure the project for Read the Docs, then keep README.md limited to a feature overview and basic quickstart with a link to the hosted documentation. Done means the documentation is hosted and the README points readers to it.
