Summary
This post details Grab's adoption of a Docs-as-Code approach to improve technical documentation. It explains the concept of Docs-as-Code, the motivations behind its adoption (challenges in finding and updating documentation), and how it solves these problems by integrating documentation into the code development process. Grab's implementation involves placing documentation in dedicated folders within Git repositories and publishing it on a central internal developer portal. The post also shares user feedback on the initiative and outlines progress and future optimizations, including applying the approach to technical training content.
