How to use the guides directory

The guides directory currently exposes 2,339 published routes across device problems, device + ecosystem combinations, brand ecosystem pages, category ecosystem pages, and support articles.

This implementation introduces reusable paging, search, featured scoring, quick links, and faceted navigation so the same directory pattern can scale to future listing pages without changing the route model or adding new tables.

Use this page when you want a crawlable hub for the default guides experience, and use global search when you want to search across guides, devices, brands, and support articles together.
