Description

What would you like us to improve?

https://docs.linkpool.io/docs/general_chainlink_guide

Recommend we use something like the infographic in the above link for our CL Node related documents, and x-link to it in our docs regarding jobs, external adapters etc. It would offer an excellent overview and ready reference to see the flow of operations and the architecture.

There are some small bits in the language that need to be disambiguated, and I can assist with that when we are putting this together.

How important it is?

The tool would dramatically improve the comprehensibility of our docs and give users a snapshot view, rather than requiring them to pore over the docs and piece together the components.
