Remove docs/sphinx and related references #8480
Conversation
I think the important part is knowing who the target audience is for it. Is it developers or users or module writers, etc.? Anyway I think this is fine unless someone disagrees. |
From the site looked like: developer. It's a list of synapse's modules, with the docstrings repeated inside. But not all modules were there, and most that were were empty. I do like the idea of a dedicated site for Synapse documentation - both for devs, users and module writers. But I don't think this would be the foundation of it. |

Synapse 1.22.0rc1 (2020-10-22) ============================== Features -------- - Add a configuration option for always using the "userinfo endpoint" for OpenID Connect. This fixes support for some identity providers, e.g. GitLab. Contributed by Benjamin Koch.

https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/tree/develop/docs/sphinx doesn't seem to really be utilised or changed recently since the initial commit. I like the idea of exportable documentation of the codebase, but at the moment after running through the build instructions the generated website wasn't very useful...
I vote we remove it for now, and add it or something similar back later with a proper plan.
