Fixes#19827.
Previously, our docs had links to various versions of the Django docs,
eg https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/topics/migrations/ and
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/signals/#post-save, opening
a link to a doc with an outdated Django version would show a warning
"This document is for an insecure version of Django that is no longer
supported. Please upgrade to a newer release!".
This commit uses a search with the regex
"docs.djangoproject.com/en/([0-9].[0-9]*)/" and replaces all matches
inside the /docs/ folder with "docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.2/".
All the new links in this commit have been generated by the above
replace and each link has then been manually checked to ensure that
(1) the page still exists and has not been moved to a new location
(and it has been found that no page has been moved like this), (2)
that the anchor that we're linking to has not been changed (and it has
been found that this happened once, for https://docs.djangoproject.com
/en/1.8/ref/django-admin/#runserver-port-or-address-port, where
/#runserver-port-or-address-port was changed to /#runserver).
In commit f6c78a35a4 we accidentally
deleted these link definitions, probably thinking that the end of the
markdown file would be the same as the end of the rendered doc. This
broke the links `[cloning your fork of the Zulip
repository][zulip-rtd-git-cloning]` and `[connecting the Zulip
upstream repository][zulip-rtd-git-connect]`.
This commit fixes things by adding back the definitions.
This commit includes the following changes.
- Adds the definition of the WSL acronym.
- Adds information for changing BIOS settings
in order to enable machine virtulization.
- Fixes a broken link to Microsoft WSL installation instructions.
- Adds a reminder to create a new SSH key before connecting to
GitHub.
- Removes the step to install Ubuntu. This step is now
included in the standard installation.
- Reminds the user to launch Ubuntu as and administrator.
- Switches the text editor in the example to nano from vim.
Nano is included with the wsl installation, and is easier for
most people to use than vim.
- Adds a separate step to fork the Zulip/Zulip repository.
- Adds the bash command to open VS Code and
reminds the user to install the relevant extensions.

Due to the fact that it's not possible to run the development
environment on a t2.micro (1 GiB RAM + 1 vCPU), which is what is
available from the free tier, the fact that signing up require a
credit/debit card and can take up to 24 hours, and that it is quite
easy to unintentionally exceed the free tier resources when expanding
or upgrading, it is no longer feasible to develop on cloud9. As such,
we should not recommend it in out setup docs.
The previous link "/wsl/wsl2-install" leads to a 404 page which
recommends "/wsl/install". This commit updates the link to
"/wsl/install".
The previous link has been giving a redirect since at least May 23,
2020.
Recommonmark is no longer maintained, and MyST-Parser is much more
complete.

Thumbor and tc-aws have been dragging their feet on Python 3 support
for years, and even the alphas and unofficial forks we’ve been running
don’t seem to be maintained anymore. Depending on these projects is
no longer viable for us.

The show password feature is a functionality to
toggle the visibility of the password fields in forms
so that one can check if they have entered the correct
password or not. We implement this using an eye icon
toggling which converts input field type from password
to text and vice-versa.
Fixes part of #17301.
I have updated the remote development documentations to be more accurate
when it comes to developing on a Zulip Development Droplet to ensure
the user knows to access at `zulip.username.zulipdev.org`.
This change attempts to highlight WSL 2 as the default installation
method for Windows; that is currently much more reliable than Vagrant.
Further work is probably needed to complete this transition.
This documentation does not work and has not been used for years.
At this point, `provision` is sufficiently flexible in terms of
supporting different platforms that any future work will be to extend
it, rather than maintaining awkward manual installation documentation.
This commits adds instructions to bring up the
vagrant development server using the Hyper-V provider.
Additionally, this commits also removes the indication
that this guide for `non vagrant use` from the top of
the document. Also fixes a little grammatical error
under the `Newer versions of supported distributions`
heading.
Fixes#16994.
Development environment docs contains an outdated
statement stating that the non-vagrant setup can't
be used on windows, while it can now be used on windows by
using wsl. This commit fixes the statement and points
the link towards the non-vagrant setup process page.
Fixes#17721.
This commit adds about Remote - SSH extension (in VS Code), which
helps us develop remotely by providing a similar interface as if we
are developing locally. We also simplify the documentation for RMate
to use the new standards.
Tweaked by tabbott for simplification/formatting.
It seems the Ubuntu base image we use now has a new enough VirtualBox
Guest Additions to trigger the ETXTBSY bug even when it’s not upgraded
by the vagrant-vbguest plugin. Provide and document a way to
downgrade it.
