As a contributor, I come across a term or acronym I don’t understand and want to quickly discover the meaning of it.

1. I access the Documentation/Glossary page of the Arrow website and type my query into a search bar.

2. A table on the page is filtered to a small set of results. The columns of the table are “Term”, “Description”, and “Links”.

Other Requirements:

• Glossaries also get included in release documentation. There should be a way to make a Glossary Release

Desirements:

• Should support Markdown (emojis, bold, italic, etc.)

Option 1 (Quick and Dirty):

• Store these definitions in a YAML or JSON file in the GitHub repository

• All updates to terms can be done through PR

• May not scale if the file becomes enormous

  • Not ideal for sorting and filtering

• https://datatables.net/

Option 2 (Potentially More Scalable):

• Store these definitions in a database (PostgreSQL?) on some server

  • Offload memory intensive operations (filtering, sorting of terms) to the server

• Updates to terms are done by individuals with access to the database

  • Potentially a Discord command /define Arrow “Arrow is a decentralized community building open source vertical-takeoff aircraft and a rideshare protocol that will bring point to point air travel to everyone.” https://www.arrowair.com/
