community.lsst.org/t/9399/8 (clarify docs link to Firefly)

Description

The following user-reported issue was not the main one solved in t/9399, but appeared further down in post 8.

Page: https://data.lsst.cloud/docs

Link box: “Portal - The Portal enables you to explore LSST image and table data in your browser.“

The issue: A user reported confusion that clicking on this box leads to Firefly documentation, when they were looking for Portal documentation. On our end, we understand the Portal runs on Firefly, but the reaction was that it was an incorrect link and wasn’t what they were looking for.

The proposed change: Replace box header “Portal" with "Firefly" and make the description, e.g., "Help pages for Firefly, which enables exploration and visualization of image and table data in the Portal Aspect." Keep the link destination the same.

Ok, that makes sense. Do you folks have a plan to fill in the Portal section of rsp.lsst.io? I think that eventually, we’ll want to link to just that and have links from those docs to the Firefly docs as a last resort for UI reference.

Sent Jonathan a Slack message to see what he thinks about the proposed change (as, like in , it would have to be him that makes the change, I think).
