If you want good documentation, keep the process simple and straightforward.
It is vital for us to have effective and straightforward tools for editing and publishing information that do not require extensive internal training or complex publishing processes.
If you want your team to write documentation, you must make the process as easy and intuitive as possible. Typemill works well in this regard.
Typemill stood out because of its Markdown-based content structure and the ability to generate both web-based documentation and high-quality PDFs.
