This PR is made against the next version of the docs. When we cut a new release, it will be included in that release. Thus there is no need to specify the commit here.

Maybe some of the designers can help us out with this? @goldsteinsveta

This is ultimately beautiful, but sure, I'll draw a scheme by the end of Friday

While I do agree that my diagram has a lot of room for improvement, I also want to emphasize the fact that one has to view it in markdown mode, otherwise tabs will not align properly.

🎉 @goldsteinsveta let me know if you need more details. I would expect the content to change a bit in the future, thus in case it is hard to do this in a way that is not easy to adapt, it might make sense to hold off a bit longer?
This patch removes the reference to the commit that introduces the Prometheus metric endpoint.

@JoshOrndorff I removed the commit reference.
I am not familiar with the release flow of this repository, so please let me know if I need to target another branch. The corresponding Substrate pull request (paritytech/substrate#4511) merged. Should we go ahead with this one as well? |
|
I think that it should be ok to keep it in |
|
The trade-off here is that node-template will not work with this tutorial unless it is a new version. It will be compatible with the latest substrate node and Polkadot. |
|
It is by design that this update lives only on |
|
@JoshOrndorff yes, that is exactly what we want. The only confusing thing is that there was no versioned doc file for this: https://github.com/substrate-developer-hub/substrate-developer-hub.github.io/tree/source/website/versioned_docs/version-pre-v2.0-3e65111/tutorials EDIT: |
|
I see what you mean now. That's a feature of docusaurus https://docusaurus.io/docs/en/versioning#fallback-functionality I guess that particular tutorial didn't change at all between 1.0 and pre-2.0 |
