Description

Bug Report Checklist
Overview

The old README.md grouped the documented things: Comments, Compiler Options, Flags, etc. The new TypeDoc-generated site doesn't group like that. The sidebar just sorts by type of thing: function, interface, type.

I'm finding it difficult to search through that very large sidebar to find the relevant things I need. Proposal: let's have that sidebar nest by the same categories as before?

Research direction

Compare the old README.md grouping of Comments, Compiler Options, and Flags with the TypeDoc-generated site's current sidebar. Start by locating the site's documentation navigation configuration, then determine how those categories could be represented; done means the documented items are easier to find through category-based navigation.
