The Silex docs have been completely rewritten with a new structure, bilingual EN/FR, and quizzes on every page
First draft is live: https://docs-66e101.gitlab.io/
If you want to help, there's a pencil icon on any page to suggest edits. Typos, rewording, missing steps, everything counts
The sections that need the most love: Quick Start, Elements, Flexbox, Publishing
Underrated feature request: import your existing HTML/CSS project into Silex for visual editing. Only 3 votes so far but this would make migrating from any tool easier. If that sounds useful, vote for it on the roadmap:

I’m experimenting with a new setup to rebuild the @silex docs
I like how Webflow (eg https://university.webflow.com/course-lesson/build-structure-intro-HTML-CSS ) does video docs
but I'm a text first kind of guy
so I’m thinking:
- rewrite the docs as exhausive structured text docs first
- turn them into audio with TTS (probably Voxtral TTS - open-weight - thx @BeginnersInAi )
- then record the videos on top
basically text → audio → video
not sure if this the way to go?

Je travaille sur l'accessibilité (#a11y) de nos templates (silex) avec deux focus :
1️⃣ Skip to main content : Un lien d'évitement (au focus) pour sauter le header et aller à l'essentiel.
2️⃣ Menu mobile au clavier : Gestion du "focus trap" pour que la touche Tab reste dans le menu ouvert.
Le code, c'est bien. L'inclusion, c'est mieux. 🚀
