docs: Apply documentation standards across all docs ( #49177 )
...
## Summary
Comprehensive remediation of 146 documentation files to align with Zed's
documentation conventions and brand voice guidelines.
## Changes
### YAML Frontmatter
- Added `title` and `description` frontmatter to all docs missing it
### Settings UI Pattern
- Updated 48+ files to show Settings Editor before JSON examples
- Pattern: `Configure X in Settings ({#kb zed::OpenSettings}), or add to
your settings file:`
- Added `([how to edit](./configuring-zed.md#settings-files))` links for
JSON-only settings
### Brand Voice Fixes
- Removed exclamation points (command-palette, key-bindings, repl,
privacy-and-security, etc.)
- Simplified em dash chains to parentheticals (environment,
troubleshooting, agent-panel, etc.)
- Fixed marketing language (yarn.md intro, development/linux.md)
### Terminology Alignment
- `settings UI` -> `Settings Editor`
- `sidebar` -> specific panel names (Project Panel, Collab Panel)
- `directory` -> `folder` in non-technical contexts
- `workspace` -> `project` in non-LSP contexts
- `Command Palette` -> `command palette` (lowercase)
### Callout Standardization
- Converted various callout formats to standard `> **Note:**` pattern
## Related
Depends on conventions established in #49176 .

docs: Big reorganize ( #45276 )
...
Release Notes:
- N/A
Overview
Restructures the documentation navigation to be organized by user goals
rather than feature lists. Introduces a new "Working with Code" section
and reorganizes existing content into clearer groupings.
### Navigation Changes
**New top-level sections:**
- **Working with Code** — Groups editing, navigation, and execution
features by workflow
- **Reference** — Dedicated section for lookup-only content (settings,
actions, CLI)
- **Coming From...** — Migration guides grouped together
**Reorganized sections:**
- **Customization** — Renamed from "Configuration," focused on
appearance and keybindings
- **Account & Privacy** — Consolidated auth, privacy, and telemetry

Refresh collaboration docs ( #43489 )
...
Most of the features for collab were previously listed in the section
that was written for private calls. Most of this PR is moving that
content over to the channel documentation and adapting it slightly.
Private calls have similar collaboration, so we can just point back to
the channels doc in that section and keep it pretty thin / DRY.

separate PR from this one)
