Description

Since fsdocs now supports generation of documentation with notebooks as input, a rework of the docs that also offers side-by-side examples for F# and C# is overdue.

I think this should be done gradually with a mechanism that allows publishing the new and old docs together as long as not all pages are ported.

This also would be a huge step forward for #376 , at least in a way that we could provide the docs in a format that is needed for the official pipeline.

Research direction

Start by reviewing fsdocs support for notebook-based documentation and the requirements in issue #376. Determine how new and old documentation can be published together during a gradual migration, then define the scope for side-by-side F# and C# examples and the official pipeline format.
