{
    protected static ?string $navigationIcon = 'heroicon-o-book-open';
    protected static ?string $navigationGroup = 'Documentation';
    protected static ?string $title = 'User Manual';

    protected function getDocsPath(): string
    {
        return resource_path('user-manual');
    }

    protected function getSectionOrder(string $filename): int
    {
        return match($filename) {
            'introduction' => 1,
            'installation' => 2,
            'usage' => 3,
