Hi All

The Emscripten documentation project is largely complete. I think the end result is pretty good - well written and structured, attractive, searchable and and easy to navigate. You can see the results here

If you have any feedback please discuss here, or raise issuesThe site has instructions on how you can build and add to this documentation yourself.  

Thank you everyone who helped support and contribute to this work. I've enjoyed working as part of this community.

Regards
Hamish

Hi Hamish, 

I was just skimming through the first page of the documentation and was able to catch a dead link.

In the Porting to Emscripten part there's a link to browser environment differences which points to some page that doesn't exist.

Big thanks to Hamish for all the work here. This is a huge step up for our project!

Next steps for me are to point emscripten.org and the wiki to the new site, and remove old wiki page links. I'll wait a little time for any feedback people have, before doing that.

Please don't forget to set up 301 redirects for Google. I've been searching the docs a lot recently and keep landing on "this page has moved" pages, which should ideally just be a 301 to the new location. This will also force Google to reindex the new content more accurately.

Hmm, not sure we can do that. You're talking about github wiki links? All we can do is keep a page up with a link to the right place.

Hmmm

My 10 second investigation indicates perhaps we can put placeholder pages to handle the redirect and that will redirect the pages and force google to reindex. Problem is, I don't know which pages have moved.
