The Data Commons documentation site, at docs.datacommons.org, now features a revamped navigation. The new navigation is intended to fix some of the usability issues that grew organically over time, and aims to:
- Provide and highlight introductory content for new users to quickly get up to speed
- Streamline the navigation into a coherent flow according to learning paths
- Reorganize topics into consistent nesting structure
- Present all topics using a user-centered, task-oriented vocabulary
- Remove duplication of content and single-source common information
Here’s a preview of the before-and-after snapshot of the site:

We are continuing to develop the site, so expect further improvements in 2025.
