Chuck 62da1d2b09 docs: fix bare /api/plugins paths in PLUGIN_CONFIGURATION_TABS
Found 5 more bare /api/plugins/* paths in PLUGIN_CONFIGURATION_TABS.md
that I missed in the round 2 sweep — they're inside data flow diagrams
and prose ("loaded via /api/plugins/installed", etc.) so the earlier
grep over Markdown code blocks didn't catch them. Fixed all 5 to use
/api/v3/plugins/* (the api_v3 blueprint mount path verified at
web_interface/app.py:144).

Also added a status banner noting that the "Implementation Details"
section references the pre-v3 file layout (web_interface_v2.py,
templates/index_v2.html) which no longer exists. The current
implementation is in web_interface/app.py, blueprints/api_v3.py, and
templates/v3/. Same kind of historical drift I flagged in
PLUGIN_ARCHITECTURE_SPEC.md and the PLUGIN_CUSTOM_ICONS_FEATURE doc.
The user-facing parts of the doc (Overview, Features, Form Generation
Process) are still accurate.

LEDMatrix Documentation

This directory contains guides, references, and architectural notes for the LEDMatrix project. If you are setting up a Pi for the first time, start with the project root README — it covers hardware, OS imaging, and the one-shot installer. The pages here go deeper.

I'm a new user

  1. GETTING_STARTED.md — first-time setup walkthrough
  2. WEB_INTERFACE_GUIDE.md — using the web UI
  3. PLUGIN_STORE_GUIDE.md — installing and managing plugins
  4. WIFI_NETWORK_SETUP.md — WiFi and AP-mode setup
  5. TROUBLESHOOTING.md — common issues and fixes
  6. SSH_UNAVAILABLE_AFTER_INSTALL.md — recovering SSH after install
  7. CONFIG_DEBUGGING.md — diagnosing config problems

I want to write a plugin

Start here:

  1. PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT_GUIDE.md — end-to-end workflow
  2. PLUGIN_QUICK_REFERENCE.md — cheat sheet
  3. PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE.md — display, cache, and plugin-manager APIs
  4. PLUGIN_ERROR_HANDLING.md — error-handling patterns
  5. DEV_PREVIEW.md — preview plugins on your dev machine without a Pi

Archive

docs/archive/ holds older guides that have been superseded or describe features that have been removed. They are kept for historical context and git history but should not be relied on.

Contributing to the docs

  • Markdown only, professional tone, minimal emoji.
  • Prefer adding to an existing page over creating a new one. If you add a new page, link it from this index in the section it belongs to.
  • If a page becomes obsolete, move it to docs/archive/ rather than deleting it, so links don't rot.
  • Keep examples runnable — paths, commands, and config keys here should match what's actually in the repo.
