    Discontinued Gitpod website and documentation (by gitpod-io)

  • As engineers, we all know the feeling of encountering a stubborn bug that defies easy resolution. The Gitpod team recently faced such a challenge when we discovered a bug with our Gitpod Docs Search functionality during a comprehensive documentation restructure. The search feature was not updating correctly, returning outdated data even after we manually ran an Algolia indexing query to update the production data with newly deployed changes. This left us scratching our heads, wondering how to resolve the issue and ensure that our users could access the most up-to-date information quickly and easily.
