Coffee and Content

Let's Talk Personalization

Let's Talk Technical Documentation

Let's Talk Content Operations

Navigate the complexities of using Markdown in large-scale technical documentation projects with insights from Matt Briggs, Senior Product Manager at Microsoft. In this episode of Coffee and Content, Matt will delve into the inherent challenges that arise when Docs-as-Code practices meet expansive tech doc requirements.

Markdown has become a staple in small-scale, developer-close environments due to its simplicity and clarity. However, as your documentation needs grow, the limitations of Markdown—such as its conflation of content and presentation—can hinder scalability, reusability, and integration with advanced AI technologies like LLMs and RAGS. Matt will explore how these challenges manifest and what you can do to address them effectively.

Expect to learn about the benefits of adopting a semantic approach to documentation that clearly labels parts for both humans and machines. Discover how separating content from presentation can not only enhance the manageability of your docs but also open up new possibilities for creating dynamic content pipelines and multi-format outputs.

Coffee and Content is brought to you by The Content Wrangler and sponsored by Heretto, a powerful component content management (CCMS) platform designed to deploy help and API docs in a single portal that delights your customers.

The Unanticipated Challenges of Docs-as-Code for Tech Docs

How To Empower Employees and Customers to Spark Change

Revolutionize your documentation strategy by mastering single-sourcing with Docs-as-Code. Manny Silva, Head of Docs at Skyflow, will guide you through the nuances and techniques necessary for effective content reuse and conditional processing across various documentation platforms.

Discover how to maintain a singular content source while seamlessly delivering customized content to diverse audiences. Manny will delve into practical comparisons between popular documentation approaches such as Markdown, AsciiDoc, and DITA, helping you understand their trade-offs in terms of simplicity versus power.

Throughout this session, you'll learn how to generate multi-format outputs—from web formats via static site generators to traditional PDFs—without duplicating efforts or compromising on quality. Equip yourself with the knowledge to choose the right tools and strategies that align with your team’s capabilities and scalability ambitions.

Practical Single-Sourcing with Docs-as-Code

Building Agentive Content Solutions With Generative AI

Understanding Content Change Management

Explore the science that makes for effective topic-based authoring with DITA. Semantic specialization should be a leading differentiator for selecting DITA for projects, yet it is one of its most underutilized features. Information Typing is truly at the heart of DITA, yet it is one of the most poorly understood concepts behind creating effective DITA topics. Content reuse is cited as a primary reason for moving to DITA, yet it is one of the hardest features to deliver expected gains in reliability, efficiency, and consistency over time.

Join Scott Abel, The Content Wrangler, and Rob Hanna of Precision Content, for this free, one-hour webinar where attendees will learn to look at concept, task, and reference in a new light, see the value in effective semantics, and consider new guidelines for writing for reuse.

We also hope you will join us for a follow-on webinar with Rob Hanna on August 18 — Advancing the Science Behind Intelligent Content. Check out the Content Wrangler channel to sign up!
