Documentation changes

Creates a migration group with individual guides for frequently migrated from platforms.

Closes https://linear.app/mintlify/issue/DOC-409/migration-guides-for-each-major-competitor-platform


For Reviewers

When reviewing documentation PRs, please consider:

✅ Technical accuracy

  • Code examples work as written
  • Commands and configurations are correct
  • Links resolve to the right destinations
  • Prerequisites and requirements are accurate

✅ Clarity and completeness

  • Instructions are clear and easy to follow
  • Steps are in logical order
  • Nothing important is missing
  • Examples help illustrate the concepts

✅ User experience

  • A new user could follow these docs successfully
  • Common gotchas or edge cases are addressed
  • Error messages or troubleshooting guidance is helpful

Note

Low Risk
Documentation-only restructure with new MDX pages and redirect updates; no application or security logic changes.

Overview
Replaces the single Migrate to Mintlify page with a migration section in docs.json (overview plus seven guides) and removes the old migration.mdx hub.

New guides cover Docusaurus, ReadMe, GitBook, Fern, Document360, a generic manual path, and a shared go-live checklist. Each platform page documents when to scrape vs export from source, how to map navigation to docs.json, component/syntax conversion tables, API spec handling, assets, URLs/redirects, and review steps—often linking to /migration/go-live.

The overview (migration/index) routes readers via cards to each guide and documents scraper page/section usage and GitHub→mintlify.com site generation.

Redirects in redirects.json point /guides/migration and /migration to /migration/index.

…examples

- migration/gitbook.mdx: GitBook renamed spaces to sections. Their current
  docs use "section" exclusively across the Git Sync, content-structure,
  content-configuration, and reusable-content pages. Update terminology
  throughout, add a note about the older name, correct the Git Sync setup
  steps to match the real flow (Set up next to Git Sync in the section
  header, then pick a provider), and expand the direction warning with the
  version-history rollback. Add a Vale.Terms toggle so .gitbook.yaml and
  .gitbook/ paths do not trip the GitBook capitalization rule.
- migration/document360.mdx: fix "Document 360" typo and align the export
  procedure with Document360's documented dialog order, including the
  format selection, the Include media files checkbox, and downloading from
  Recent files.
- Revert components/banner.mdx and its es/fr/zh copies. The /migration link
  there is a placeholder inside an example, and translated content is
  handled by the translation pipeline.

The group is already called "Migrate to Mintlify", so the root page title
repeated it in the sidebar.

…holders

- migration/fern.mdx: correct the source-content paths against Fern's
  documented project structure. Pages live in fern/docs/pages/ and assets in
  fern/docs/assets/. Add the previously missing fern/docs/snippets/,
  fern/docs/changelog/, and fern/styles.css, note that only the fern and
  changelog folder names are reserved, and map Fern snippets to Mintlify
  snippets in the component table.
- migration/index.mdx: document the scraper's page command, which was only
  documented in the deleted migration.mdx. Covered once here rather than
  repeated in each scraper-supported platform guide. Also update the GitBook
  card to say section instead of space.
- migration/readme.mdx: replace https://project.readme.io with
  https://your-project.readme.io. The former is a real login-gated project.
- migration/docusaurus.mdx: remove trailing whitespace.
