The documentation is a critical part of the Edlink experience, and we're excited to announce a complete redesign of our documentation site. The new design features a fresh layout, improved navigation, and enhanced search functionality to help you find the information you need more easily.
In addition to the new design, we've also added a "Cookbooks" section that provides step-by-step guides for common tasks and use cases. These cookbooks are designed to help you get the most out of Edlink and make it easier to implement our APIs in your applications.
