Description

https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/getting_started/scripting/gdscript/gdscript_basics.html#doc-gdscript
This page is simply overwhelming. I never read it in full, only look up bits and pieces here or there when I need.
Splitting off exports (https://github.com/godotengine/godot-docs/pull/2718) into one (or more) pages(s) is definitely a good idea, but can we have this for more of it's topics?

While it's called "Basics" of GDScript it actually seems like quite a comprehensive collection of it's features that go way beyond what I would consider basic. It's incredible valuable, overall very well explained information, but if was structured into smaller junks with pages (and more detailed list of the topics to left for each page), I would not get intimidated or oversaturated with new info that easy.
Plus I would quickly get an overview about what information I can find here.
