+# OpenShift Examples — examples.openshift.pub
+
+MkDocs Material documentation site collecting practical OpenShift / Kubernetes
+examples and lab notes. Author: Robert Bohne.
+
+## Tech stack
+
+- **Static site generator**: MkDocs with Material theme
+- **Extensions**: pymdownx (highlight, superfences, tabbed, snippets, tasklist, details, emoji), admonition, attr_list, meta, toc
+- **Plugins**: search, git-revision-date-localized, git-authors, tags, macros (Jinja), glightbox, drawio, mike, privacy
+- **Custom hook**: `hooks/sha256_filter.py` — adds a `sha256` Jinja filter
+- **Linting**: markdownlint (`.mdl_style.rb`) + yamllint (`.yamllint`) via pre-commit
+- **Build**: Containerfile-based (`builder.Containerfile`), deployed via ArgoCD (`.argocd/`) and Tekton (`.tekton/`)
+
+## Repository layout
+
+```text
+content/          — all documentation pages (docs_dir in mkdocs.yml)
+overrides/        — Material theme overrides and custom icons
+assets/           — extra CSS (powered-by.css)
+hooks/            — MkDocs Python hooks
+deploy/           — Helm chart / deployment manifests
+.argocd/          — ArgoCD app definition
+.tekton/          — Tekton pipeline definitions
+mkdocs.yml        — site config, nav tree, plugins, extensions
+new-page-template.md — canonical template for new content pages
+```
+
+## Development workflow
+
+1. Create a feature branch — never commit directly to `main`.
+2. Make changes.
+3. **MANDATORY**: Run `./run-local-pre-commit.sh` before pushing. It executes markdownlint and yamllint via pre-commit. Fix any issues before pushing. Never skip this step.
+4. Push the branch and open a PR against `main`.
+5. GitHub Actions (`.github/workflows/`) run linting and a preview deployment.
+6. Another person reviews using the preview deployment.
+7. After approval, merge into `main`.
+
+## Key conventions
+
+- Navigation is defined manually in the `nav:` section of `mkdocs.yml`.
+- Content pages use YAML front matter (`title`, `linktitle`, `description`, `tags`).
+- External files (YAML, JSON, etc.) are embedded via pymdownx snippets (`--8<--`).
+- Companion files sit next to the markdown page that references them.
+- Run locally with `./run-local.sh` (podman container on port 8080).
+- Pre-commit checks: `./run-local-pre-commit.sh`.
+
+## Content authoring conventions
+
+### Front matter (required)
+
+Every page starts with YAML front matter:
+
+```yaml
+---
+title: Short Title
+linktitle: Short Title
+description: One-line summary
+tags: ['topic','v4.18']
+---
+```
+
+Optional: `icon:` for custom nav icons (e.g. `redhat/Technology_icon-Red_Hat-OpenShift_Virtualization-Standard-RGB`).
+
+### Tested-with table
+
+When a page documents a tested procedure, add a version table early on:
+
+```markdown
+|Component|Version|
+|---|---|
+|OpenShift|v4.18.19|
+```
+
+### Embedding external files (snippets)
+
+Use pymdownx snippets to include companion YAML, JSON, or config files that sit next to the page:
+
+```markdown
+--8<-- "content/path/to/file.yaml"
+```
+
+### Download + source tab pattern
+
+Pair a "Download" tab with a source tab so readers can both fetch and view the file:
+
+````markdown
+=== "Download: my-resource.yaml"
+
+    ```shell
+    curl -L -O {{ page.canonical_url }}my-resource.yaml
+    ```
+
+=== "my-resource.yaml"
+
+    ```yaml
+    --8<-- "content/section/my-resource.yaml"
+    ```
+````
+
+### Admonitions
+
+Use MkDocs Material admonitions:
+
+- `!!! info` / `!!! warning` — always-open callouts
+- `???+ note "Title"` — collapsible, open by default
+- `??? quote "Title"` — collapsible, closed by default
+
+### Code blocks
+
+- Use `shell` as the language for terminal commands and output.
+- Use `hl_lines` to highlight important output lines, e.g. add `hl_lines="3 4"` after the language tag.
+- Include `$` prompt prefix only when mixing commands with output.
+
+### Child-page listing (index pages)
+
+Index pages use this Jinja macro to auto-list children:
+
+```jinja
+{% set current_page_title = page.title %}
+{% for n in navigation if n.title == current_page_title %}
+{% for c in n.children if c.title != current_page_title %}
+{% if c.abs_url is string %}
+- [{{ c.title }}]({{c.canonical_url}})
+{% else %}
+- **[{{ c.title }}]({{ c.children[0].canonical_url }})**
+{% endif %}
+{% endfor %}
+{% endfor %}
+```
+
+### Creating a new page (checklist)
+
+1. **Add to nav** — add the page entry in the `nav:` section of `mkdocs.yml`.
+2. **Add to Last updates** — insert a row at the top of the "Last updates" table in `content/README.md` with the date and a link (format: `|YYYY-MM-DD|[Headline](relative/path/)|`).
+3. **Create directory and file** — create a new directory under `content/` and add an `index.md` based on `new-page-template.md`.
+
+All three steps are required. The nav tree is maintained manually — pages not listed in `mkdocs.yml` will not appear in navigation.
+
+### Heading style
+
+Use ATX-style headings (`# H1`, `## H2`, etc.). Each page should have exactly one `# H1` matching the `title` front matter field.
+
+## YAML conventions
+
+### yamllint rules (from .yamllint)
+
+- Max line length: 180 characters (warning level).
+- Document start marker (`---`) is not required.
+- Comments indentation check is disabled.
+- Truthy values: use `true`, `false`, `yes`, `no` only.
+- Braces: at most 1 space inside (warning level).
+
+### Kubernetes / OpenShift resources
+
+Manifests should include `apiVersion`, `kind`, and `metadata` fields in that order.
+Use standard label conventions (`app`, `app.kubernetes.io/*`).
+
+### Snippet compatibility
+
+Many YAML files in `content/` are embedded into documentation pages via pymdownx snippets (`--8<-- "content/path/to/file.yaml"`). Keep them self-contained and readable — they are displayed verbatim in the rendered site.
