I had the pleasure of chatting with Manny Silva about his work on VerbaGPT, and how he uses LLMs to cut his time-to-first-draft from 2 days to an incredible 5 minutes Full conversation on YouTube 👇 youtu.be/fr-t0gMmrFk

Granted @GetDoctave isn't a particularly data-heavy app, I feel like we just crossed some kind of milestone because we had to add a missing database index to address a performance issue. Resulted in a good 150ms faster page loads for some customers!

My discussion about Markdown and Structured Authoring with @remoquete is out! We discussed lots of interesting ideas about how to bring structured authoring concepts into a docs-as-code context Take a look! youtube.com/watch?v=M5L0xy…

Your docs are the product. For some companies, the docs are the biggest touch point that the your user will interact with. Much more important than the copy on your marketing site. Invest in your docs, hire tech writers, make your users happy.

How to build a developer tool: 🏎️ Make it fast, then even faster 🔓 Make it extensible, no lock-in ⭐ Make it frictionless to get started ✨ Make the docs part of the product 🤝 Make it predictable, backward compatible

Still think you should think twice about putting an AI in front of your carefully written developer docs. Your users are not experts in your product. They cannot tell when the LLM is hallucinating and making up features, which it inevitably will (for now at least).
Chris Frantz@frantzfries

we removed the AI-powered search from our docs because it was unreliable and made up fake features still waiting for the production-grade llm that can reliably produce data without hallucinations long way to go

We created a new Markdown-aware component system for 2.0 👀 You can: - Embed interactive UI components directly in Markdown - Nest Markdown and components together - And even create custom reusable components And keeping with our music-inspired brand, we're calling it Ballad
