Scala Documentation Layout Breaking on Larger Screens

gerhynes · May 16, 2022, 10:21am

This morning I noticed that the layout of the Scala documentation is breaking on screens wider than 768px.

The issue seems to be with the styles being applied to the section with the “content” class. Removing the negative top margin resolves the issue, though the content now doesn’t overlap the “title-page” section they way it used to.

Good that you found this! You might want to report it here:

github.com

scala/docs.scala-lang/blob/main/_getting-started/index.md

---
layout: singlepage-overview
title: Getting Started
partof: getting-started
languages: [fr, ja]
includeTOC: true

redirect_from: "/getting-started.html"
---

{% include getting-started.md %}

Also this page should perhaps be updated by the Scala Center with more advice on how to contribute with doc issues and web-page issues:
https://docs.scala-lang.org/contribute/bug-reporting-guide.html

Thanks for the link. I had a quick look on GitHub to open an issue but couldn’t find the docs in the time I had available.

You’re right that the contributing guidelines could include a bit more information on issues with the docs and the official site.

Anyway, the issue’s been resolved now.
