Repository navigation
[Doc]: FAQ is not reachable anymore via the main menu #26627
Description
Documentation Link
Problem
AFAICS the only link to this page (and child pages) is in the boxes on the index page https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/.
This is hard to find.
IMHO all pages should be accessible via a chain of links starting from the main menu, because the main menu is the entry point to navigating the site.

Um what do you mean by main menu in this context given that it's in the main index? Granted, still think we should do #17920 but if we must have an FAQ and it must be navigable to, then I vote for for now making it part of the user guide and having it findable from that TOC - especially if #26628 can go in.

I want to click on a menu item here:
and on the opened page possibly 1-2 subsequent clicks on toc entries to reach the FAQ.

so #26628 should do that - it moves half the FAQ to install and the rest to the user guide & is linked to from there. Technically install is not available through that top menu either but one problem at a time. And yes it's a little buried in the user guide landing page but that's also a whole different PR/overhaul.

Getting Started, Install, and FAQ were all moved to the top level index in #26332. None of them is currently accessible from any links in the upper bar (except the Matplotlib logo)

I think getting started should be folded back into quickstart (which is linked in userquide) & I think I'm gonna also link the install related faqs in the development install/workflow.
