Minor
I am reading the Jenkins credentials plugin user guide to try to understand an issue I'm having with my Jenkins setup, and I am finding it extremely frustrating. The guide is written by someone(s?) who obviously understand the credentials plugin well, and the motivation behind it; unfortunately, it assumes that I want or need to understand everything about the plugin in order to do anything with it. I just want to use the thing, not learn the whys and wherefores of its creation. It has no internal links to facilitate navigation around the document; section headers are difficult to find while scrolling; detailed step-by-step screenshots are put next to overviews.
The Jenkins credentials documentation page provides an overview and links to the using credentials page page. An overview video is included in that page as well. Pipeline examples are included in the Jenkins Pipeline documentation as well.
