Samuel Onoja eb84104940 Publish topic guides to the wiki and document tabbed windows
Publish the guides from this repository to the GitHub Wiki. Organize them into Usage, Configuration and Development, with 15 separate configuration topics and redirects for the former website guide URLs.

Add a tabbed-windows guide covering grouping, switching tabs and taking windows out. Document the scrolling indicator's defaults and limits, and link the guide from the README, shortcuts and IPC pages. Update from main, including the latest tabbed-layout changes.

Separate Activities setup, configuration and publishing documentation. Review the guide prose with the unslop skill, keeping existing examples and heading links. The wiki workflow uses GitHub's built-in token to publish documentation changes on main.

Validation:

- 20 documentation tests pass, including README links and Activities/tab-indicator field coverage.
- The publisher builds 46 wiki pages; the site build and Python syntax checks pass.
- All 115 code examples from main are preserved.
- The Python suite passes: 90 tests passed and 31 opt-in integration tests skipped, with the system GI module available.

Ferese website

The website links to the GitHub Wiki for documentation. Former handbook URLs redirect to the matching wiki pages.

Local preview

python3 -m venv .site-venv
.site-venv/bin/pip install -r site/requirements.txt
.site-venv/bin/python scripts/build-site.py
python3 -m http.server 8080 --bind 127.0.0.1 --directory build/site

Open http://localhost:8080 for the homepage. Rebuild and refresh the browser after changing the site sources.

  • site/index.html and site/home.css: homepage and desktop screenshots.
  • site/styles.css: shared dark appearance, typography and navigation.
  • docs/*.md and its configuration/development topic directories: guide sources published to the wiki.
  • scripts/build-site.py: copies homepage assets and writes handbook redirects.
  • scripts/build-wiki.py: validates and generates wiki pages.

GitHub Pages

Choose Settings → Pages → Source → GitHub Actions to enable publishing, then open Actions → Deploy website to GitHub Pages → Run workflow and choose the branch to publish. Deployment runs manually, and the expected address is https://ferese-wm.github.io/ferese/.

The homepage uses relative asset links, so it also works under the /ferese/ project path. Each build copies screenshots from docs/images into build/site, which is ignored by Git.

For deployment setup, follow GitHub’s custom workflow documentation.

Brand assets

assets/branding/ferese.svg is the canonical blue Fe mark used by the README, website, favicons and installed application icons. Its square 950×950 viewBox is shared with ferese-symbolic.svg, which uses the same shape and currentColor for shell and notification icons. Keep both variants in sync.

Regenerate the symbolic icon and raster favicons after updating the canonical SVG:

python3 scripts/update-branding.py

The exporter requires Python PyGObject, Pycairo, Pillow and librsvg. The generated site/assets/favicon-32.png is 32×32; site/assets/favicon.ico contains 16×16, 32×32 and 48×48 images. They are checked in, so the site build needs no renderer. The links work at both the site root and the GitHub Pages project path.

The light and dark wallpapers live in assets/wallpapers. Both are 3840×2160 and are bundled by the installer. Ferese selects the matching image when no custom wallpaper is set. Settings keeps both defaults available below the current wallpaper preview.

Screenshots live in docs/images/screenshots and are shared by the README and website. Full captures retain their original 2880×1800 resolution, while the homepage uses smaller WebP versions for narrower screens.
