Style guide

This is the (fledgling) style guide for Nextstrain’s documentation.

Capitalization

Capitalize the names of our projects, like Nextstrain, Augur, Auspice, Nextstrain CLI, etc.

Do not capitalize the eponymous commands of our projects, e.g. augur, auspice, nextstrain.

Titles

Use short titles in the entries of toctree directives (i.e. the site navigation tree) to keep the navigation sidebar easily scannable. It’s ok for the title of the page itself to be longer/different.
