A new outlook to developer documentation.
For decades, we as developers have relied on documentation to build software. And it’s time we change it now.
Why docs don’t meet the need of developers today?
We as developers are now relying on AI to write most of the code for us. Almost all of us are using a coding assistant to automate grunt work and build apps faster then every before.
Yet, the process of using documentation is still pretty much the same.
- They require tons of reading before you get to writing code.
- Friction in copy/pasting code from docs to your IDE.
- Code needs to be rewritten for your usecase and codebase.
- No assistance in resolving runtime errors.
- Often unfriendly to beginners forcing them read third party tutorials.
So, what’s the solution?
Imagine a documentation system that:
- Provides personalized documentation for your usecase.
- Works from your IDE (so now window switching)
- Knows everything about your code and generates tailored answers.
So you can just say “I want to add stripe payment gateway to my web app” and voila — it generates the entire code with steps to run.
Sounds dreamy? Well, it has now become a reality. Checkout:
