「向け」の情報
向け is a shortened form of the transitive verb 向ける 'to aim at', and is considered to be a 造語 (neologism). This means a word that was created for a specific purpose, and may not necessarily be used for anything outside of that purpose. The purpose of 向け is to attach to other nouns, in order to express that something is 'intended for (A)', 'aimed at (A)', or 'oriented toward (A)'.
向け may be seen followed by the case marking particle に (when followed by a phrase), or the case marking particle の, when linked with another noun.

Caution
向け, coming from the transitive verb 向ける is used far more often to express that something has been specifically designed for (A). On the other hand, the suffix stemming from the intransitive verb 向く, (向き), expresses something that faces toward (A), but perhaps not intentionally.- そのおもちゃは猫向けに作られている。That toy is made for cats.
- 上級者向きの本は難しいです。Books suitable for advanced learners are hard.

I would like to inform that the “Community Discussion” link on the grammar page is not redirecting to here !
Also, I found this link to be helpful at making sure I understood the difference (although maybe minimal) between 向け and 向き. Would it be desirable to have it listed among the “Readings” ?
