Change order / layout of victory components on front page about victory-docs HOT 4 CLOSED

I am working on terminology for each column and could use a sanity check.

If there is not already a system in place, perhaps Chart and Pie are both Figures, and each component that a Figure wraps is called a Layer.

Column 1: Core
Column 2: Chart Figure
Column 3: Other Figure

For clarity, here is each list:

Core:

• VictoryAnimation
• VictoryLabel

Chart Figure:

• VictoryChart and its layers:
  • VictoryArea
  • VictoryAxis
  • VictoryBar
  • VictoryLine
  • VictoryScatter

Other Figures:

• VictoryPie
• Other Figure Layers (?):
  • VictoryTooltip [coming soon]
  • VictoryConstraints [coming soon]
  • VictoryStack [coming soon]
  • VictoryGroup [coming soon]

Reading:
A layered grammar of graphics and its implementation in ggplot2

from victory-docs.

If that's too esoteric, then we could go explicit, which maps to where everything lives on github:

Core:

• VictoryAnimation
• VictoryLabel

Chart:

• VictoryChart:
  • VictoryArea
  • VictoryAxis
  • VictoryBar
  • VictoryLine
  • VictoryScatter
  • VictoryConstraints [coming soon]
  • VictoryGroup
  • VictoryStack
  • VictoryTooltip [coming soon]

Pie:

• VictoryPie

from victory-docs.

VictoryStack and VictoryGroup are already built, and documented within the VictoryArea and VictoryBar docs (where they are useful / supported), but maybe they need their own docs sections?

from victory-docs.

Ah! I see. I would only break them out into their own docs sections if either:

a.) there are plans to integrate them with more chart layers/sub-components (making it tedious/repetitious to add the same docs to each chart layer/sub-component)

b.) users are confused, or users want more specific, in-depth information on VictoryStack or VictoryGroup

Otherwise I would leave them where they are. :)
