AutoSlideIdea Documentation Structure Analysis Report

Executive Summary

This report analyzes the documentation structure of AutoSlideIdea, focusing on navigation consistency, missing pages, broken links, and overall organization between Japanese (ja) and English (en) versions.

Key Findings

1. Navigation Structure Inconsistencies

Language Version Discrepancies

  • Japanese version has more complete documentation structure
  • English version is missing several key sections:
    • /en/quickstart/index.md - Directory exists but no index file
    • /en/user-guide/ - Entire directory missing
    • /en/features/index.md - Missing index file (individual feature files exist)
    • /en/guides/index.md - Missing index file

2. Broken Links in Home Page (docs/index.md)

The home page contains several broken links:

  1. Quick Start Link: /AutoSlideIdea/ja/quickstart/
    • ✅ Target exists: /docs/ja/quickstart/index.md
  2. Installation Link: /AutoSlideIdea/ja/getting-started/installation
    • ✅ Target exists: /docs/ja/getting-started/installation.md
  3. User Guide Link: /AutoSlideIdea/ja/user-guide/
    • ✅ Target exists: /docs/ja/user-guide/index.md
  4. Features Link: /AutoSlideIdea/ja/features/
    • ✅ Target exists: /docs/ja/features/index.md
  5. Contributing Link: /AutoSlideIdea/ja/development/contributing/
    • ✅ Target exists: /docs/ja/development/contributing.md

All Japanese links are valid, but the home page lacks English language options.

3. Missing Referenced Pages

In Japanese Section (ja/index.md)

  • References /ja/concepts/ - Directory and files do not exist
  • References /ja/installation/ - Should be /ja/getting-started/installation/

In English Section (en/index.md)

  • References /en/quickstart/ - Directory exists but no index.md
  • References /en/getting-started/concepts/ - Directory and files do not exist

4. Directory Structure Comparison

Complete in Japanese, Missing in English: 

ja/                          en/
├── user-guide/             [MISSING]
│   ├── index.md
│   ├── basic-usage.md
│   ├── markdown-syntax.md
│   └── themes.md
├── features/               
│   └── index.md           [MISSING index.md]
├── guides/
│   └── index.md           [MISSING index.md]
└── quickstart/
    └── index.md           [MISSING index.md]

Missing in Both Languages: 

- concepts/ directory and related files
- getting-started/index.md (exists only in en/)

5. Organizational Issues

  1. Inconsistent nav_order:
    • Home page: nav_order: 1
    • Japanese section: nav_order: 2
    • English section: nav_order: 10

  2. Missing language switcher: No apparent mechanism to switch between Japanese and English versions

  3. Inconsistent file naming:
    • Some English files use .en.md suffix (e.g., css-themes.en.md)
    • Others don’t follow this pattern

Recommendations

Immediate Actions

  1. Create missing English documentation:
    • /docs/en/user-guide/ directory with all corresponding files
    • /docs/en/quickstart/index.md
    • /docs/en/features/index.md
    • /docs/en/guides/index.md
  2. Fix broken references:
    • Update /docs/ja/index.md to remove /concepts/ reference or create the directory
    • Fix installation path reference from /ja/installation/ to /ja/getting-started/installation/
  3. Create missing concepts sections:
    • /docs/ja/getting-started/concepts.md
    • /docs/en/getting-started/concepts.md

Long-term Improvements

  1. Implement language switcher: Add navigation to switch between ja/en versions
  2. Standardize file naming: Decide on consistent approach for language-specific files
  3. Create translation tracking: Document which pages need translation
  4. Add navigation consistency checks: Automated tests to ensure parity between languages

User Flow Analysis

Current User Journey (Japanese)

  1. Home → Quick Start ✅
  2. Home → Installation ✅
  3. Home → User Guide ✅
  4. Getting Started → Concepts ❌ (broken)

Current User Journey (English)

  1. Home → Only Japanese links available ❌
  2. Direct navigation to /en/ → Limited content
  3. Missing critical paths for English users

Conclusion

The documentation structure shows a clear bias toward Japanese content, with the English version significantly lagging. The Japanese documentation is well-organized but has a few broken references. Priority should be given to:

  1. Creating English equivalents for all Japanese content
  2. Fixing the broken concept references
  3. Implementing proper language navigation
  4. Ensuring consistent structure between both language versions
