Writing documents in GitHub is like coding with Notepad

We fixed it. Don’t worry. Be happy!

Pain points:

  1. The tax of switching “Switching between Edit and View tabs 47 times per README is not productivity, it’s punishment.”

  2. Tables are torture “Writing markdown tables by hand: | pain | more pain | why |”

  3. Commit message fatigue “Fixed a typo.” “Fixed another typo.” “This time I really fixed the typo.” — Every documentation PR ever.

  4. Not made for writing “GitHub is made for code review, not content creation. Your documents deserve better.”

  5. The contributor barrier “Want non-technical people to contribute to your documents? Good luck explaining git blame.”
