What problem does it solve?
Technical documentation standards streamline consistency across teams, ensuring that system descriptions, interactions, and rationale are expressed plainly for machine consumption and onboarding.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured frontmatter guidance: defines required fields, sections, and references to related docs to enable predictable loading in LLM contexts.
- Diagram and accessibility guidance: mandates Mermaid diagrams for interactions and focuses on ARIA considerations where applicable, improving accessibility and comprehension.
- Documentation governance: outlines inclusion/exclusion rules, table-based APIs, and validation patterns to enforce quality across projects.
- Use Case: an engineering team uses tech-docs to generate consistent architecture overviews and decision records for a large mono-repo.
Quick Start
Create a minimal technical documentation document that begins with a YAML frontmatter and includes an overview and integration points.
