Updating the wiki to 3.8

I’ve just created a PR to update the wiki to version 3.8. This is the first time I’ve done this so I wanted to confirm I’d done everything correctly:

That last one I want to check with people. I’ve done this because $(npm bin) is linux specific while I believe npx is cross platform compatible. It works on my windows computer, is anyone who has a linux PC able to check it still works for them?

Local build

While doing this I noticed that the local changes seemed to be being ignored. I tracked this down to the wiki-playbook.yml file. It is because of this section

content:
  sources:
  - url: https://github.com/jMonkeyEngine/wiki.git
    branches: [HEAD, v3.3, v3.2]
    start_path: docs
  - url: https://github.com/jMonkeyEngine/wiki-ui
    branches: HEAD
    start_path: docs
  - url: .
    branches: HEAD
    start_path: docs-wiki

wiki-ui is a seperate repo so makes sense it is referred to like that, but wiki.git is the current repo

The docs path uses the remote repository, not the local repository. If I change it to . it works fine. docs-wiki is already like that. I can see it was changed from . to https://github.com/jMonkeyEngine/wiki.git back in 2020 in a commit by @mitm . Do you or anyone else know why? Ideally I’d like to change it back to . so local development is easier

I got some thumbs up so I merged it and it all looks to be working. The question about . remains though
