It is possible to put things there, as in this link which is both documentation and example:

Other projects using this theme have the mostly-empty left sidebar:

https://numpy.org/doc/stable/

https://jupyter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

(They also have fancier landing pages, though, which we have been discussing).

It goes away on mobile devices or small windows, at least.
