What is a documentation generator?

A documentation generator is a tool or software that auto-generates documentation for a given codebase, project, or software application. It analyzes the source code and other information to write comprehensive and structured documentation for you.

Documentation generators help teams save time and effort while improving your document's consistency and accuracy. They're also easy to maintain and update as the codebase evolves.

Why should you use a documentation generator for process documentation?

1. Break it down into manageable steps

‍It’s important to make your documentation as clear as possible so that it is easy for everyone to understand.

The best way to do this is to document the process exactly how you actually do it. Scribe takes out the guesswork by following along and documenting exactly what you do while you do it, so that your documentation matches your workflow.

2. Prioritize consistency & standardization

To make sure that your documentation is clear, standardize the format of your documentation. This means that the title, language, and visuals should be consistent between and within each document.

Each Scribe is auto-generated with a standard layout that you can customize to fit your needs. To make sure that your documents are searchable and shareable, Scribe uses ChatGPT to auto-generates a unique title for each document you generate based on your clicks and keypresses.

3. Encourage feedback & continuous improvement

One of the best practices for creating SOPs and training documentation is to include the people who actually use them.

Encouraging feedback from team members and making adjustments based on their experiences will ensure that your documentation stays relevant and accurate. Scribe’s built-in feedback features allow your teammates to comment and react to your Scribes, making sure that you never miss any critical feedback.
