httpyac VS diataxis-documentation-framework

There's also https://httpyac.github.io/ which has both standalone CLI and VS Code extension versions – might be interesting to explore.

Here is the github repo for httpyac [1]. Not sure why it's not part of the httpyac org that hosts the site.

Perhaps it could be restructured to separate out the howto from the explanation to serve the reader’s intended use at the time as described here: https://diataxis.fr

Create an organized repository for regularly updated documentation, making it easy to access important information.

Such integration capabilities really help push the developer productivity, whether that's in single-project workspaces or monorepos.

I think people may be missing the core point of this article.

Anton has built a new thing, https://codapi.org/ - which provides a web component that makes it easy to embed interactive code snippets for HTTP APIs, Python code and more directly in pages of documentation.

This article demonstrates this new technology in the context of the https://diataxis.fr/ documentation framework, which recommends going beyond just straight API reference documentation and ensuring you cover tutorials, how-to guides and explanations as well.

I think this is really cool.

As much as possible on all facets, because that is what "documentation" means, and if you are a product manager who wasn't paying attention in product management 101 and need some guidance on what "documentation" is, try reading this first.

Diátaxis identifies four modes of documentation - tutorials, how-to guides, technical reference and explanation. It derives its structure from the relationship between them.(...)"
