-# painlessMesh Documentation - Docusaurus Migration
-
-## Overview
-
-This document outlines the migration from the current custom documentation approach to **Docusaurus 3** for better user experience and maintainability.
-
-## Current Issues
-
-### Broken Links Found
-- `docs/tutorials/custom-packages.md` - Missing
-- `docs/tutorials/sensor-networks.md` - Missing  
-- `docs/advanced/performance.md` - Missing
-- `docs/architecture/routing.md` - Missing
-
-### Problems with Current Approach
-1. **Raw Markdown** - No processing, links break in GitHub Pages
-2. **Manual HTML generation** - Basic and unmaintainable
-3. **Doxygen isolation** - Separate from user documentation
-4. **No link validation** - Broken links undetected
-5. **No search functionality** - Poor discoverability
-6. **Poor mobile experience** - Not responsive
-
-## Proposed Solution: Docusaurus 3
-
-### Why Docusaurus?
-- ✅ **Modern React-based** - Fast, responsive, beautiful
-- ✅ **Built-in search** - Algolia integration
-- ✅ **API docs integration** - Seamless with Doxygen
-- ✅ **Link validation** - Automatic broken link detection
-- ✅ **Versioning support** - Multiple library versions
-- ✅ **GitHub Pages deployment** - Automated CI/CD
-- ✅ **SEO optimized** - Better search engine ranking
-
-### Implementation Plan
-
-#### Phase 1: Setup Docusaurus
-```bash
-# Initialize Docusaurus
-npx create-docusaurus@latest website classic
-
-# Configure for painlessMesh
-cd website
-npm install --save @docusaurus/plugin-client-redirects
-npm install --save @docusaurus/theme-mermaid
-```
-
-#### Phase 2: Content Migration
-1. **Migrate existing docs** to `docs/` folder
-2. **Create missing pages** identified in review
-3. **Fix all broken links** 
-4. **Integrate Doxygen** output
-5. **Add interactive examples**
-
-#### Phase 3: Enhanced Features
-1. **Search integration** with Algolia
-2. **API documentation** with auto-generated content
-3. **Interactive code examples** 
-4. **Version management** for releases
-5. **Analytics integration**
-
