Note that I plan on using a cookbook (apache/arrow-cookbook#227) to address most snippets and examples in the future. |

The "authoring compute kernels" docs was previously written in markdown. This commit begins the process of changing the format to reST. There are also some changes to make the organization and descriptions a bit more clear and/or concise.
With the exception of some URLs which are still in markdown, this commit addresses most comments left on the old PR. Most long lines were wrapped, most prose suggestions were taken, code format styles were changed from markdown to restructuredText. There was some discussion in certain areas that have not yet been addressed, but many of those will be addressed as I coalesce code snippets and descriptions with the cookbook.
To make the documentation a bit cleaner, I am trying to split the portions that explain the basic terminology and concepts of the compute layer into a separate document from the portions that try to describe code organization and best practices

I am still restructuring docs so this will need some iterations before final review, but it'll be cool to get initial feedback if the preview works |
|
Indeed. You'll need to re-run for each preview. |
|
This page is still a work in progress, but it's where I am thinking of putting some higher level overview of "the compute layer" (what are compute functions, what are function kinds, etc.) so that the author_compute_fn.html doc can be a bit leaner and more to the point. |
|
Sorry for orphan-ing this for so long. I would like to get back to this towards the end of the week. |
The goal of this PR is to update the existing documentation for authoring compute kernels.
This PR will primarily reformat the documentation from markdown into reStructured text and updated descriptions. In some cases, I will try to reference a cookbook.
