Hi guys 👋
I'm reaching out today as a software engineer who has grappled with the challenges of maintaining efficient, up-to-date documentation for almost a decade. Like many of you, I've experienced firsthand the struggles and frustrations that come with documentation - keeping it current, making it useful, and, honestly, trying to make it less of a chore and more of a resource.
This is why I'm now leading an initiative to develop an open source tool specifically designed to ease the burdens of technical documentation. And I need your help to make it as effective and community-driven as possible.
Why Your Insights Are Crucial:
- Shared Experience, Shared Solutions: Having been in your shoes, I understand the pain points. Your input will help shape a tool that addresses real, common challenges in our field.
- Open Source, Community Focused: This isn't just another product. It’s a community endeavor, open source and accessible, built by developers for developers.
- Practical and Scalable: We aim to create something that genuinely makes the task of writing and scaling documentation more efficient and enjoyable.
How You Can Contribute:
🔗 Take the survey: https://megnr62oidc.typeform.com/to/pMOe3Wgb
- Spare a few minutes for a survey about your documentation experiences, challenges, and what you wish were different. It’s quick, around 5 minutes.
- Interested in a deeper discussion? Opt-in for a follow-up interview. Your detailed insights would be incredibly valuable (and there's a thank you gift involved!).
I believe that together, we can create a tool that not only eases our current frustrations but also sets a new standard for developer documentation. Your voice in this is not just welcomed – it’s essential.
Thank you for considering joining me in this venture. I look forward to learning from your experiences and insights.
Best,
Clemente.
👉 P.S. Please share this with other developer friends and colleagues. The more input we have, the better this tool can become for all of us!
