Update documentation for Config Split 2.x

Created on 15 March 2022, almost 3 years ago
Updated 9 March 2023, almost 2 years ago

Problem/Motivation

The core feature of Config Split is still the same between 1.x and 2.x. However, some things have changed quite a bit and we need to update the documentation for it.

Proposed resolution

Go through all the documentation .
Find out what is outdated and update it.
Add new documentation for new features added to 2.x

In particular we need to document:

  • The difference between conditional splits in 1.x and partial splits in 2.x in a page dedicated for people switching from 1.x to 2.x.
  • And how the "stackable" split feature works when it is turned on vs turned off. This should include some recommendations on when to use it and when not to use it.
  • Explain the storage options and explain that splits are automatically loaded if they are in the sync directory even before they are first imported (but not if they are split themselves in other splits)
  • Status overrides with state
  • UI options for activating and deactivating splits
  • .... your ideas

Everyone is welcome to edit the documentation.
The documentation should document 2.x as 1.x will be on security support only and deprecated as soon as 2.0.0 is released.

Remaining tasks
