Valentin Gagarin	d5ffc94f33	use lookup paths in helper expressions consistently ... this makes the files in question a bit more independent of source location. to find where the value is set and how it's wired up: rg nix=doc/manual	2023-11-30 21:53:31 +01:00
John Ericson	73eb6a2a57	Single page for experimental feature descriptions ... As requested by @fricklerhandwerk.	2023-04-09 11:01:23 -04:00
John Ericson	bc192a95ef	Describe active experimental features in the contributing guide ... They are put in the manual separate pages under the new overarching description of experimental features. The settings page just lists the valid experimental feature names (so people know what a valid setting entry looks like), with links to those pages. It doesn't attempt to describe each experimental feature as that is too much information for the configuration settings section.	2023-04-06 18:07:59 -04:00
John Ericson	53d0836347	Assemble experimental feature docs outside of Nix itself ... Instead of constructing a markdown list in C++ (which involved all sorts of nasty string literals), export some JSON and assemble it with the manual build system. Besides following the precedent set with other dumped data, this is a better separate of content and presentation; if we decide for example we want to display this information in a different way, or in a different section of the manual, it will become much easier to do so.	2023-04-04 22:57:11 -04:00
