## By Iteration

### Iteration +0

In order to unflatten the new cratedb-guide, a bit of content has been slotted in, mostly from external resources.

### Iteration +1

- [x] Refine/balance between priority and style.
[The CrateDB Guide](https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/) should provide optimal guidance and appearance. On a previous development iteration, information conveyance was balanced. Currently, [it is not](https://github.com/crate/cratedb-guide/pull/40#issuecomment-1964822693). So, improve the appearance of the canonical main page again.
- [x] Remedy wall of tiles on main index page, eventually switching back to a 3-column subsection layout on the topmost page section. See discussion at https://github.com/crate/cratedb-guide/pull/42#pullrequestreview-1901765759.
- [ ] Apply more "tiling"-style guidance to a few other pages. We are sure this can be applied to many. ;]
- https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/domain/
- https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/reference-architectures/

### Iteration +2
Improve sections about specific **application domains** and **other sections** more _significantly_.
- [Time Series](https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/domain/timeseries/)
- [x] GH-53
- [ ] GH-54
- [x] [System Metrics](https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/integrate/metrics/) <= GH-56
- [x] [Administration / Troubleshooting](https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/admin/troubleshooting/) <= GH-55

### Iteration +3
- [ ] Remedy more walls of links on [Integrations](https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/integrate/) page.
No idea how, because it's a massive matrix of information to be conveyed over there. Maybe use a new kind of small-tiled layout, or just use an improved table variant?
- [x] Improve section about [Upgrading](https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/admin/upgrade/).
https://github.com/crate/cratedb-guide/pull/43#discussion_r1504463903
- [x] Improve guidance/layout on page about [Performance](https://cratedb.com/docs/guide/performance/).
