Multimodal Data becomes a section of Table, between Data types -- which
introduces blobs -- and Schema evolution.
The rest is link repair. Earlier merges left links pointing at pages that had
moved, which the redirect table covered but the link checker does not follow,
so they were broken in the rendered site: /catalog, /lance, /namespaces,
/tables-and-namespaces, /search/multivector-search, /search/explain-analyze and
/basics/data-types#blob.
The redirect table itself had two conflicting entries for /tables/multimodal and
four pointing at reranking pages that no longer exist; both are fixed.
The pages describing this code lived in lancedb/docs, a repository with ten
stars that neither contributing guide mentioned. A user who hit a wrong page
while reading the source had to find a separate, near-invisible repository to
fix it. These 102 pages now sit beside the code, and a documentation fix is a
pull request in the repository the reader already had open.
`docs/web` is a complete Mintlify site: `cd docs/web && mint dev` serves it with
no other checkout. Enterprise pages stay private and are merged in when the
published site is assembled, so links into them do not resolve here — every
open-source page does.
`docs/web-tests` holds the tests the code examples are extracted from. They ran
against a published wheel before; here they can run against this repository's
own SDK, so an example that stops compiling fails the pull request that broke
it rather than being noticed later.
Both directories sit beside `docs/src` and are invisible to it: mkdocs reads
`docs_dir: src`, so the SDK reference builds and deploys exactly as before.
