Part of Fedora Hatch Day at SCaLE 23x.
Great documentation is the backbone of any successful open source project, but maintaining it at an operating system scale is a massive challenge. To combat contributor burnout and modernize our workflows, the Fedora Council has approved a major Community Initiative to revamp the Fedora Docs ecosystem.
Our goal is to build a dedicated support team for tooling and empower sub-teams of subject matter experts to own specific areas of interest. In this highly interactive 25-minute session, we will start with a lightning introduction to our Antora-based toolchain and the progress we’ve made in lowering the technical threshold for new writers. But we won't spend the whole time talking at you. The core of this session is driven by the audience.
As Linux users and open source enthusiasts, we want to know what you care about most—whether it's end-user support, beginner's guides, or getting involved with an open source community. We will crowd-source topics directly from the room and facilitate live breakout discussions around existing Fedora Docs components and where we need to build new ones. Come share your expertise, tell us what documentation you wish you had on day one, and learn how you can influence the future of Fedora's documentation!
