Like soup-to-nuts. I know I need to document what I’m doing and I’ve started several times, but then I never go back and make updates. I don’t know if it’s just the ADHD or if I’m just going about it or thinking about it in the wrong way.

So I’m curious about:

  • what you use for your documentation
  • how you organize it
  • what information you include
  • how you work documentation into your changes/tinkering flow

Edit: Dang, folks! You all have given me a lot to read through, think about, and explore. Thank you!

    Bookstack in a docker container. You can export pages with revision numbers and dates. I print out the emergency stuff and keep it in a binder. https://www.bookstackapp.com/ I’ve been using it at work for like a decade now. No apps or anything though, just a decent web interface.

      I’ve heard really good things about Outline too.

      Great idea to print out the most important bits.

      Oh damn!.. I’ve never crossed Bookstack in my searches, but from the previews it looks (actually) simple, clean, and powerful.

      Now I know what the evening will be spent on!
