The Doka Guide?
It's a
community-driven
documentation resource
It has a
friendly
and
welcoming
atmosphere
It's a place where you can learn, share, and help developers grow together.
Why I should help?
You help other developers and the entire community 🥰
You learn a lot and revisit a technical documentation 🤓
Three of our team members/contributors have moved to London, so… 😎
It's simply fun 🤪

Guides's anatomy
Two main GitHub repositories:
Platform
and
Content
🫀
The Content repository contains articles, while the Platform repository hosts the website itself
Other repositories include Search for the website's search API, and API for the backend.
We have a
big
platform backlog 🌌
And our content backlog is
huge
. I mean it!
