New digiKam User Documentation

Dear digiKam Fans and Users,

A new year brings new goals—and this year, we’re taking on a significant challenge: migrating the old digiKam documentation from the DocBook format to a modern, easier-to-maintain architecture.

After 20 years of using DocBook, we have transitioned to the Sphinx/ReStructuredText framework. This new system is not only more intuitive for documentation writers but also streamlines the entire process of creating and updating content.

Only this one, as Sphinx was already used by Krita and Kdenlive projects, so it was simple to deploy on the KDE infrastructures. In all cases, Sphinx is 1000 better than DocBook so far, so i think it’s a good solution, well documented and wide used.
