Sumana Harihareswara 337155f280 Remove rST files to replace with Markdown.
Currently (https://github.com/rtfd/recommonmark/issues/3)
the recommonmark bridge (which allows Sphinx to read
Markdown) does not support tables, so the directory structure
doc is now a bulleted list instead of a set of tables.

Sumana Harihareswara e0bc57ddb1 Rearrange docs table of contents for coherence.
The order and structure of the Read The Docs documentation
was fairly arbitrary; here's a suggestion for how to change
its information architecture so it's more useful to a new
contributor. This adds a short Zulip overview, and a table
of contents and code contribution intro for new contributors.

Fixes: #668.

Tim Abbott 3ed78eb746 docs/testing: Clean up discussion of rebuilding database. 2016-05-31 07:48:00 -07:00
Christie Koehler e06492ec3a Improve first-time contributor docs.
Fixes #747. Fixes #748.

This updates README.dev.md to include clear, step-by-step instructions
for setting up the Zulip dev environment Windows 10, OS X El Capitan,
Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty, and Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial. It is aimed at first-time
contributors.

I tested these instructions multiple times on each of the target
systems.

Also added is a "trobleshooting and common errors" section which
documents the most common errors contributors are likely to encounter
during setup and how to fix them.

Improvements based on feedback from @timabbott.

- Fixes whitespace issues so linter will pass.
- Updates memory requirement.
- Re-orders so operating systems are listed alphabetically.
- Updates headings to be clearer.
- Updates and adds ToC entries for clarity.
- Adds screen shot of Zulip dev environment running in browser.
- Adds details about using dev environment, including about logging.
- Misc other minor changes for clarity.
- Adds a stub for docs/logging.md
- Adds details about configuring Cygwin for native symlinks.
