Writing documents in GitHub is like coding with Notepad

We fixed it. Donโ€™t worry. Be happy!

Pain points:

  1. The tax of switching โ€œSwitching between Edit and View tabs 47 times per README is not productivity, itโ€™s punishment.โ€

  2. Tables are torture โ€œWriting markdown tables by hand: | pain | more pain | why |โ€

  3. Commit message fatigue โ€œFixed a typo.โ€ โ€œFixed another typo.โ€ โ€œThis time I really fixed the typo.โ€ โ€” Every documentation PR ever.

  4. Not made for writing โ€œGitHub is made for code review, not content creation. Your documents deserve better.โ€

  5. The contributor barrier โ€œWant non-technical people to contribute to your documents? Good luck explaining git blame.โ€
