Replace this callout with two or three sentences describing what docs does, written for a reader who has never heard of it. Name the job it does rather than the category it sits in — "keeps stock counts in sync across warehouses" tells a reader more than "an operations platform".

How this site is organised#

Each section makes a different promise, and mixing them is what makes documentation hard to read.

  • Getting started is the shortest path from nothing to a working setup. It assumes no prior knowledge and explains nothing it does not have to.
  • Features describes capabilities, so an evaluator can decide whether docs covers their case before signing up.
  • Guides are task-shaped. Each one has a goal in the title and ends with a result the reader can check.
  • FAQ collects the questions that arrive more than twice.

Two habits that keep this site true#

  1. Change the page in the same pull request that changes the product. A stale instruction costs more support time than a missing one.
  2. When a customer asks the same question twice, write the answer down once instead of answering it a third time.

Link to https://docsbook.io/Docsbook-websites/docs-6 from the product's help menu so nobody has to go looking for these pages.
