create a dedicated Home page for docs at dvc.org/doc (design part left)

[jorgeorpinel]

In a reorganization of docs (#1051) we're creating a Home page that /doc redirects to.

We'd like it to BE in /doc. But keeping the Home entry in the nav sidebar. Is this easy with the current Gatsby engine?

---

• It should have dedicated icon. Related nav: allow different bullet icons in sidebar #1053.

• Putting it in dvc.org/doc most likely means it's a separate page, rather than a regular Markdown file.

• Design. It should have a table with existing sections, with graphics, etc. Again, probably means it's a separate page rather than a regular one.

• On the sidebar it should stay separate under the search bar.

• Main topics should have a special CSS design (after get-started: full refactoring #1074 is merged):
  

  UPDATE: Probably 4 tiles instead, jump to create a dedicated Home page for docs at dvc.org/doc (design part left) #1073 (comment)

  Good example (at least the middle section) in https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql:

@pavelgrinchenko can you check this issue please?

@jorgeorpinel In the current codebase you can't do it without changes in the src/utils/sidebar.js. If you want you can show your branch with changes and I'll do it for you.

I prepared patch. You can get it here, and then just set something like this in sidebar's config

{
    "label": "Home",
    "slug": "",
    "source": "home/index.md"
}
