It would be great if a custom layout for the side navigation could auto-populate when pages are added.
This is similar to sphinxdoc / readthedoc's toctree macro, especially with "globbing"
I see this as an enhancement to the tree-based navigation, especially with the drop-down menu suggestion
example:
with a folder structure of
index (with toc)
testdir
|--file1 (with toc)
|--file2
|--same_level_dir
|--|-file1
|--subdir
|--|-file1
|--|-file2
root index has
testdir/*
testdir/same_level_dir/*
testdir index has
subdir/*
and it produces the attached layout.
new files placed in the subdirectories would automatically appear at the correct nesting level in the navigation
some good examples (not mine, just popular pages):

This feature would be so useful! Should be preferably include a nav item that includes all its child items and they in turn contain all their child items etc so you easily can access all the subdirectories of a path. Would also be useful to to be able to include all pages of a certain tag under a nav item.
This is a good feature to have, and makes it a lot easier to have content on subpages since there is no sitemap.
being able to change it to a top nav would be handy as well
For users that have a Wiki created in AzureDevOps, that wiki uses the file-folder structure as navigation structure. Would it be an idea to offer the option to use the folder structure from the Git repo as structure for the navigation? It would be really nice to not have to author the navigation in case of new folders.
One thing to deal with would be empty pages that AzureDevOps allows for folders.
Nice idea. I think this would be good for the side navbar too when tags come out.
