🛠️ **How to Solve the 77 Empty Files Problem**
You now have **3 solutions** to choose from:
### 🧹 **Solution 1: Clean Slate (Recommended)**
Remove empty files and create a minimal, working documentation structure:
```bash
# Run the cleanup script
./scripts/clean-empty-docs.sh
# This will:
# - Remove all 77 empty files
# - Create a new SUMMARY.md with only existing content
# - Give you a clean, minimal documentation structure
```
**Result:** Clean documentation with only 9 real pages that have content.
### 📝 **Solution 2: Generate Templates**
Fill empty files with template content:
```bash
# Generate content templates for empty files
./scripts/generate-doc-templates.sh
# This will:
# - Create template content for common pages
# - Provide structure for you to fill in
# - Keep the full documentation structure
```
**Result:** All 86 files will have content (some real, some templates to fill).
### 🔄 **Solution 3: Use Content Sync (Current)**
Keep using the `info/` and `docs/` directories:
```bash
# Build with content synchronization
just docs-build-sync
# This copies content from info/ and docs/ directories
# Only works for files that exist in those directories
```
**Result:** Some pages get real content, others remain empty.
## 🎯 **My Recommendation**
I recommend **Solution 1 (Clean Slate)** because:
**Immediate results** - Clean, working documentation right now
**No false promises** - Only shows what actually exists
**Easy to expand** - Add pages as you write real content
**Professional appearance** - No broken links or empty pages
**Better user experience** - Users see real, useful content
## 🚀 **Let's Do It!**
```bash
# Clean up the documentation
./scripts/clean-empty-docs.sh
# Build the cleaned documentation
just docs-build
# Start the documentation server
just docs-dev
```
This will give you a **clean, professional documentation site** with only the content that actually exists, rather than 77 empty placeholder pages!
Would you like me to run the cleanup script for you? 🧹✨
