Hi, all!
For those of you who work in organizations that do decent documentation, what are you using?
We currently just have a bunch of word docs in a SharePoint document library. I’ve previously used dedicated solutions for this such as Bookstack and Confluence. The company is very anti-Atlassian, so Confluence is out.
Just want to see what y’all are using as I search for a better solution.
Thanks!
Not using it, but Bookstack looked real nice for a documentation site.
We’re using a different wiki at the moment for it.
We’ve been migrating a lot of documentation into Bookstack this year, and like it a lot so far.
I had Bookstack at a previous org and really liked it, just nobody cared about it.
I recently migrated all our various Excel and Word documents from Sharepoint into a self-hosted Bookstack instance. I love it.
I have one shelf for stuff like SOP, contracts, etc, and another for customer documentation.
Thanks for sharing! I’m very tempted to give Bookstack a go.
What are you using for bug tracking? IMO, the two should be hand in hand. If you’re using GitHub issues, then GitHub wiki would make sense to me.
I’ve never had good luck using SharePoint or Google Docs for documentation, it just gets lost. If you’re searching GitHub for an issue, it’s easy to expand the search to include wiki. Having documentation in a separate system means searching two places, which is not ideal.
Documentation? What’s that?
Haha that would be most the people on our team’s response for sure.
For technical documentation, most of our teams are currently using Gitlab pages, however we are steadily moving to Backstage
How is backstage? I look at it and feel perhaps we should just be using all the features of gitlab. Does it really bring something better to the table?
