Desel72 opened a new pull request, #49557:
URL: https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/49557
### Rationale for this change
The left-hand sidebar menu for the Python docs lists 22+ entries in a flat
structure, making it hard to skim and navigate. The C++ docs already use nested
toctree groupings (Getting Started, User Guide, etc.) which makes the sidebar
much more scannable. This was requested in #47685.
### What changes are included in this PR?
- Created 5 new intermediate grouping pages that organize the flat toctree
into logical sections:
- **Getting Started**: install, getstarted
- **Data and Compute**: data, compute, memory, timestamps
- **File Formats and I/O**: ipc, filesystems, csv, feather, json, orc,
parquet, dataset, flight
- **Data Interchange**: numpy, pandas, interchange_protocol, dlpack,
extending_types
- **Reference**: env_vars, api
- Updated `index.rst` to reference the grouping pages and set `maxdepth: 3`
so the sidebar shows the nested structure
- The existing `integration.rst` and `getting_involved` entries are reused
as-is
### Are these changes tested?
Documentation-only change. Can be verified by building the docs with Sphinx.
### Are there any user-facing changes?
Yes — the Python docs sidebar navigation will show grouped sections instead
of a flat list, improving discoverability.
