Improve documentation

[purezen]

Description

1. Right sidebar has repeated links like on page https://reactnative.dev/docs/running-on-device for Connecting to the development server and Building your app for production

2. In Connect via Wi-Fi section, the instructions looks a bit outdated.

Where it is mentioned

Go to Dev Settings → Debug server host & port for device.

the route rather seems Settings → Debug server host & port for device

3. Camera Roll appears in searches but has broken links

Edit link on https://reactnative.dev/docs/cameraroll is broken. Don't know why Camera Roll is shown in search. If it is to be shown the Edit link might be updated.

Documentation version

Present in the current version i.e. 0.62

Will be glad to open PR

Thanks for flagging that @purezen!

Camera Roll may be outdated with broken links because it's deprecated and not included anymore.

Would love to review your pull requests for the other mentions. 😃

@purezen those links are not repeated but they point to different panels of the same webpage

Yes, @3scava1i3r you're right but I think their hierarchy isn't correct because when the device is different links should be under their respective device.

What do you say? @charpeni

See image below ⤵

the issue is that those links

1. Plug in ..........
2. Configure code ...........
3. Build and Run your ..............
   are dead links

Hi all 👋!

The problems described above are known issues caused by content switching tabs (platform and OS in this case). For the same reason the right sidebar has been disabled on the Environment Setup page.

Within the current docs platform restrictions (Docusaurus V1) it is not possible to fix this problem cleanly in our codebase (also the V1 development has been frozen a while ago in favor of V2). Unfortunately the only solution for now is to disable the onPageNav (the right sidebar) on this page.

Edit link on https://reactnative.dev/docs/cameraroll is broken. Don't know why Camera Roll is shown in search. If it is to be shown the Edit link might be updated.

Unfortunately the links are generated by the Docusaurus V1 and there is no check/fallback for non existing page, but in this case a custom_edit_url header can be used to point to the versioned docs file. I will prepare a PR for the CameraRoll but there is a lot of removed pages which should be updated in the similar way.
