Left-hand Nav UX improvement

[patocallaghan]

Hey,
how would you feel about me implementing the following UX improvement for the left-hand navigation?

Use localStorage to remember whether you've checked Show Description or not. Then each time you visit the site, if you checked the box previously, it will remember this and the descriptions will appear.

I would like it very much. I have a few ideas on the mdoc repository like keyboard navigation, load pages using ajax, etc... but I never found the time to implement it - I guess my day job is already too similar to these tasks so my motivation to do it on my free time is not that big...

Any improvement is highly appreciated.

I think we should also change the structure to share the same JS/CSS files between all the versions if possible (that way we don't need to re-implement the same features everywhere).. But I would be OK if the changes are done just for the future versions. We can always go back and improve things later.

Yep,

I'd be happy to work on these. Are you okay with a pull request per feature rather than one big one? Just means I can work on particular features as I get the time and I guess it would make reviewing easier.

Also just so I understand, these changes are to go into the mdoc repository rather than mout itself?

[millermedeiros]

Sure, small pull requests are good. Can be on mout itself since our
"template" is a little bit different. Thx
