Description
If I visit https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/#connection , I see
. In that list, I would expect `connect()` to be a clickable link, but it isn’t. To navigate to `connect()`, I have to click on the `MongoDB()` link and then use the prev/next navigation to navigate to the previous documentation which finally gets me to the documentation for `connect()`.
The very fact that `connect()` is not a link on the `mongo` CLI documentation page makes me think that there isn’t any documentation on the command. So after giving up looking for the docs the first time, I had to experiment to figure out how its `url` parameter works (hint: it doesn’t actually accept a URL!). Then later I found I was able to indirectly get to `connect()`’ docs and then saw that URIs are not supported and learned how to pass username/password correctly.
I think this stumbling could be saved for others if the link was added.
Thanks.
