The API not clear on whether included in the framework reference or need a package reference

[WeihanLi]

Type of issue

Missing information

Description

The API docs page is not clear whether this API has been included into framework reference or need additional package reference.

There's info on whether the API is included into the framework on apisof.net page, but also not clear which package should be used if not included in the framework reference

Is it possible to show the info on both sites?

@gewarren @terrajobst you were looking at improving the docs to be clearer on which framework the API is introduced and which down-level it is supported. Do you have input about this report?

Related to #10012. I have some improvements coming in #10646.

For apisof.net, the package is shown (and hyperlinked) if you select one of the package-provided versions:

So I think this issue can be closed?
