Some changes occurred in HTML/CSS/JS. cc @GuillaumeGomez, @jsha |
I remember we had a discussion about changing the key to focus on the search input but can't find it again... I don't really have an opinion on this matter so let's see if everyone else agrees with it. @rfcbot fcp merge |
Team member @GuillaumeGomez has proposed to merge this. The next step is review by the rest of the tagged team members: No concerns currently listed. Once a majority of reviewers approve (and at most 2 approvals are outstanding), this will enter its final comment period. If you spot a major issue that hasn't been raised at any point in this process, please speak up! See this document for info about what commands tagged team members can give me. |

Can we change this to just "Search"?

I know it's a bit off-topic, and I'll approve this PR even if the change isn't made, but the keyboard command should probably be made less prominent.
- The whole premise of the PR is that we don't actually need to tell people about this keyboard command. They will assume it exists in Rustdoc because it exists in GitHub, Discourse, MDN, Zulip, GitLab, other websites that I don't know about, and VI.
- If you don't have a hardware keyboard, the UI is presenting things to you that you can't use.
- The
?
command only works if you're on a big enough screen. If you're on a small viewport, the?
keyboard command does nothing even if you have a hardware keyboard. The button is also gone. - "Search" ought to be the first word, for ease of scanning.

I was thinking about adding the available keys on the right of the search input a bit like what the github search input has. Then depending on the screen width, we can easily hide the ones not available.

The search bar has had explicit words about the keyboard commands since 1.0. I'm pretty sure the reason they did it that way was because the ?
button didn't exist yet.
Now that there's a help button, do we really need the stuff in the search box? We don't have on-screen indicators for most keyboard shortcuts; what makes search different other than the fact that we've always done it that way?
Ranked preferences
-
No indicator for keyboard shortcuts unless you open the Help window is ideal IMO. Keyboard shortcuts aren't important enough to justify redundancy. We should spend our above-the-fold-clutter budget on the actual crate's documentation.
-
If you really want to have an on-screen indicator for this keyboard shortcut, the way it's done now is ideal. It's very straightforward, so at least we're spending screen real estate on something the user will actually understand and benefit from.
-
Are you suggesting something like this?
I don't like that approach at all. It seems like a bad compromise that's worse than either of the "extremes," because it's adding stuff on the screen but it's so subtle that new readers probably won't even understand what it means. Few sites display it that way according to this guy

Convenience and also people (sadly) seem to rarely ever click on the ?
button.

I think maybe just having "/ to search" as a short snippet would be fine. We shouldn't inundiate them with information here, but having "/ to search" on a search box is quite standard and not distracting (github does it).
Having more complex text is distracting

I think we're going really off-topic here and honestly I don't care that much. You know where to message me in case you want to chat more about this; this GitHub PR doesn't seem like the right place. |

This is based on the pkgsrc-wip rust180 package, retaining the main pkgsrc changes as best as I could. Pkgsrc changes: * Adapt checksums and patches. * Make this work again on big-endian aarch64 (at least on NetBSD). * Make the choice of GCC = 12 work for sparc64 by testing options after options.mk is included (which is required...). Makes this work on NetBSD/sparc64 10.0 again.
