Documentation for the AI on the Edge Device Project

Go to https://jomjol.github.io/AI-on-the-edge-device-docs to use it.

This repo contains the documentation for the AI-on-the-Edge-Device Project.

How does it work

1. You can edit any *.md document in the docs folder.
2. Then create a Pull Request for it to merge it into the main branch (or edit it directly in the main branch if you have the required rights).
3. When it got merged, the Github Actions will re-generate the documentation and place it in the gh-pages branch. This branch automatically gets populated to the public Documentation Site

Migrating existing Wiki Pages

The files from the AI-on-the-Edge-Device Wiki got exported and added to this repo. Unless the files are listed in the docs/nav.yml file, they will be listed in the assorted pages section of the left sidebar.

In the end, we should review all pages from there step by step and add them to the upper part of the navigation.

Tasks to do

• Make sure there is a top level title (#) and all other chapter headers are on lower levels (##, ###)
• Check the links in the documents
• Fetch included images and place them directly in the docs/img folder
• Rewrite to have a clear structure

Editing a page

Each page has a link on its top-right corner Edit on GitHub which brings you directly to the Github editor.

Adding new pages

1. Add a new *.md document in the docs folder.
2. Add the filename to the docs/nav.yml at the wished position in the Links section.

Parameter Documentation

Each parameter which is listed in the configfile in the main project repo has its own description page in the folder param-docs/parameter-pages (grouped by the config sections). Those pages can be edited as needed.

The script concat-parameter-pages.py in param-docs should be run whenever one of the pages changed. It then concatenates all pages into the single ../docs/Parameters.md which gets be added to the mkdocs documentation.

Template Generator

The script generate-template-param-doc-pages.py should be run whenever a new parameter gets added to the config file. It then checks if there is already page for each of the parameters.

• If no page exists yet, a templated page gets generated.
• Existing pages do not get modified.

If the parameter is listed in expert-params.txt, an Expert warning will be shown.

If the parameter is listed in hidden-in-ui.txt, a Note will be shown.
