Design how to balance explanations with information

See !1847 (comment 612581)

At the moment Debusine is a new thing, and the interface tried to be self-explanatory, with lots of introductory content explaining what is what and giving links to the documentaiton.

As Debusine picks up adoption and users move towards the power user side of the spectrum, thse are less needed and take up screen space that can be used for information more relevant to the job at hand.

We can either remove the explanations at some point, or replace them with something collapsible that can store a "yup, I've seen this" in cookies or in the database for the user, to allow a more gradual migration.

I personally hate doing this with naggy popups or forced tutorials. Little book icons scattered here and there that expand explanation boxes which then have links to documentation sound to me like a better strawman prototype idea.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
