What would you like the documentation team to work on?

Summary

This issue tracks an audit of the following documentation page:

Install NGINX Gateway Fabric with Helm
https://docs.nginx.com/nginx-gateway-fabric/install/helm/

The page currently has the lowest satisfaction score of all NGINX Gateway Fabric installation content. As of now, its lifetime average is 2.42 out of 7 (n=12), and the trend has declined further since July. No specific user feedback is available, but the downward trend suggests that readers may be encountering friction or unclear instructions. A full audit is recommended to assess clarity, task success, and alignment with current Helm usage patterns.

Metrics (current)

  • Lifetime average: 2.42 / 7
  • Number of responses: 12
  • Satisfaction trend has declined since July 1, 2025

Actions

  • Run an end-to-end test to confirm the workflow works as documented
  • Identify missing context or unclear guidance in command usage
  • Check that GitHub links and versioned paths work as expected
  • Make sure prerequisites, steps, and callouts are clear and complete
  • Flag instructions that could confuse users or lead to errors
  • Edit the page to match the NGINX style guide reading level (8th–9th grade)
  • Update the doc catalog for this page and its includes (e.g., DOCS-1430) with the reviewed-on date
  • Monitor satisfaction scores after updates are published

Priority

P2
This is an installation doc with the lowest satisfaction score in the set and should be reviewed.
