I fixed a broken onboarding path in GitLab’s developer tutorials by replacing an outdated search target that no longer existed in the codebase.
Both GDK and Gitpod setup docs told contributors to look for old text (Customize the color of GitLab), which made the exercise fail for new contributors.
I updated the tutorials to use a current, searchable string (Syntax highlighting theme) so new contributors can complete setup steps without dead ends.
This removed a small but real contributor-friction point and was merged after docs review.
