Description

Product documentation your users will love. GitBook has everything you need to create beautiful docs for your users — so you don’t have to build your own editing tools, CMS, website and more. You can just focus on writing great content. GitBook’s branch-based Git workflow encourages your whole team to collaborate by creating a branch, requesting a review, and merging when ready. It’s a flow your developers already know and love — and they can even edit your docs in their code editor using Git Sync. That’s all backed up by AI that lets your users find what they need fast, publishing settings that put you in control of who can access your docs, and internal documentation for your own team.

If you do not have a strong development background, helping an internal team for a huge tech giant can be daunting. And its a weird area to try to find help. I used GitBook to create user docs for a new iternal platform and the help docs from GitBook made it possible. Thank you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
