Documentation Restructuring—Status Update
=========================================

22 July 2021

We are pleased to announce that the first stage of the documentation restructuring process has been completed. The documentation homepage and the global menu changes were published last week and contain a new layout for the homepage and a restructured menu.

[Visit the New Documentation Home Page](http://docs.typo3.org)

We collected feedback from a range of different users to gather their opinions and find out what we can do to improve their overall experience with the docs.

The changes to the starting page and menu are the first steps on the road to making TYPO3’s documentation work better for *both* new and existing users.

The Most Notable Changes 
-------------------------

- **TYPO3 Explained** can be found in the *Reference Manuals* section.
- **The extension documentation** (for system and third party extensions) is now available under *Developing and using extensions*.

What’s Next
-----------

The next phase will include the collection of analytics data on the usage of the new homepage and menu, additional style adjustments (including bespoke icons for each overview box) as well as collecting and implementing feedback from users.

Next on the agenda for the documentation restructuring project is the publication of the new Getting Started guide which has been rewritten to help new users get up to speed with TYPO3. Feel free to take a look at the [draft version of that manual on docs.typo3.org](https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/tutorial-getting-started/draft/en-us/).

We also intend to consolidate the main Installation and Upgrade guide to remove duplicated content once the new Getting Started Guide is published.
