Descrizione
New contributors and users frequently confuse chunks, blocks, frames, and superchunks — terms that appear throughout the API but are never defined in one place. The getting-started section has no glossary.
Suggested work: Create doc/getting_started/glossary.rst (and link it from doc/getting_started/index.rst) defining at minimum:
- SChunk, frame, chunk, block, subblock
- Compression parameters (cparams): codec, clevel, filters
- NDArray vs CTable vs SChunk — when to use each
- Index types: SUMMARY, BUCKET, PARTIAL, FULL, OPSI — one-sentence each
Each term should link to the relevant API reference page.
