# Objective
I wanted to send the Bevy discord link to someone but couldn't find a pretty link to copy paste
## Solution
Use the vanity link we have for discord
Adds an GitHub Action to check all local (non http://, https:// ) links in all Markdown files of the repository for liveness.
Fails if a file is not found.
# Goal
This should help maintaining the quality of the documentation.
# Impact
Takes ~24 seconds currently and found 3 dead links (pull requests already created).
# Dependent PRs
* #2064
* #2065
* #2066
# Info
See [markdown-link-check](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/markdown-link-check).
# Example output
```
FILE: ./docs/profiling.md
1 links checked.
FILE: ./docs/plugins_guidelines.md
37 links checked.
FILE: ./docs/linters.md
[✖] ../.github/linters/markdown-lint.yml → Status: 400 [Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, access '/github/workspace/.github/linters/markdown-lint.yml'] {

}
```
# Improvements
* Can also be used to check external links, but fails because of:
* Too many requests (429) responses:
```

* crates.io links respond 404

This PR adds a note to the Fedora section of Linux Dependencies on solving linker errors.
Fixes#1815.

The g++ package may not be preinstalled.
Also, replaced the mention of "fast" compiles, with generic instructions about how to install clang; this is because on my test system, clang didn't make any difference, and it's likely not to do any in general, as it is a relatively small part of the build.
Closes#1294.
That override was added to support pre 1.45 Versions of Rust, but Bevy requires currently the latest stable rust release.
This means that the reason for the override doesn't apply anymore.
I have run the VSCode Extension [markdownlint](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=DavidAnson.vscode-markdownlint) on all Markdown Files in the Repo.
The provided Rules are documented here: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/blob/v0.23.1/doc/Rules.md
Rules I didn't follow/fix:
* MD024/no-duplicate-heading
* Changelog: Here Heading will always repeat.
* Examples Readme: Platform-specific documentation should be symmetrical.
* MD025/single-title
* MD026/no-trailing-punctuation
* Caused by the ! in "Hello, World!".
* MD033/no-inline-html
* The plugins_guidlines file does need HTML, so the shown badges aren't downscaled too much.
* ~~MD036/no-emphasis-as-heading:~~
* ~~This Warning only Appears in the Github Issue Templates and can be ignored.~~
* ~~MD041/first-line-heading~~
* ~~Only appears in the Readme for the AlienCake example Assets, which is unimportant.~~
---
I also sorted the Examples in the Readme and Cargo.toml in this order/Priority:
* Topic/Folder
* Introductionary Examples
* Alphabetical Order
The explanation for each case, where it isn't Alphabetical :
* Diagnostics
* log_diagnostics: The usage of inbuild Diagnostics is more important than creating your own.
* ECS (Entity Component System)
* ecs_guide: The guide should be read, before diving into other Features.
* Reflection
* reflection: Basic Explanation should be read, before more advanced Topics.
* WASM Examples
* hello_wasm: It's "Hello, World!".
In this case, the previous section header linked to in second badge in `plugins_guidelines` didn't actually exist, so I just linked to the same section as the first badge
Also I need to check that github handles the relative links correctly
Changed grammar and wording on two entries to make them easier to understand and fit better into the context (make MP3 format fit better alongside the audio formats).
