How structured authoring, leveraging open source tools, can help your Pubs group grow from being a bottleneck—with complicated toolchains preventing non-writers from contributing—to a service organization that can provide all sorts of content across the organization, including docs-as-code and converged content straddling techcom and marcom, with true single-source-of-truth guiding the overall design of the system.
Focusing on two case studies, this talk will highlight some of the benefits of a pure open source, structured-authoring approach.
As a service group:
Content experts define the forms and data structures used by all contributors, to enforce consistency of both content and metadata.
Enable single-source-of-truth content repositories that other groups can pull content from, via REST APIs. In other words, support for a “headless CMS” approach to content re-use between websites (everyone can still own their own websites).
As a writing group:
Your own technical writing group becomes just another group to service.
Treat your content like a database, for maximum flexibility of re-use. The structure itself provides the keys from which you can build, sort, link, collate, and automate content.
Open source allows for rapid prototyping: the “build and show” model for successful projects, versus the “propose and hope” model.
