### Alternative directory-relative form I only see `<a href="./page">` in developer docs, but I occasionally see `<a href="page">` in the wild. Explicitly showing the duplication could be helpful for new developers. ### Parent directory The `<a href="../page">` example highlights the URL scheme’s basic similarity to CLI directory navigation. It also adds context to the single-dot directory-relative form.

Description
Add two common relative URL forms to the relative URL examples.
Motivation
<a href="page">is a more minimal directory-relative example. In addition, I sometimes see it while browsing the general web, but I have only seen the<a href="./page">directory-relative form in source code and developer docs. Showing the duplication could be helpful for new developers.The
<a href="../page">parent-directory-relative example highlights the URL scheme’s basic similarity to CLI directory navigation. It also adds context to the single-dot directory-relative form.Together, the three directory-relative examples are a better description of a part of the URL scheme that’s a common point of confusion.
