Description
Hey guys, so sorry if this is the wrong place, but I suspect there might be a few others with the same thoughts. I absolutely love the new look to the site – and congrats on the 2.0 launch!! – but I really miss the scrolling sidebar from the old API documentation. It was so attractive and useful that I would literally bring people to the site just to show off the well thought-out scrolling behavior.
While this new design clearly has awesome new features, particularly in that seamless transition between individual mobile pages and the single scrollable main page (I will probably be bringing people here to show them that now...) I really miss that old sidebar on large screens.
Is there any chance we could get that back?
You guys rock!

Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue; begin by locating the API documentation layout and comparing the current large-screen navigation with the old sidebar behavior. Done would require an agreed scope for restoring the scrolling sidebar and verifying it works on large screens, but the issue does not define those details.
