FAIRmat documentation workshop

In May 2023 FAIRmat organised a well-attended, lively and productive workshop on writing documentation

On 8-9 May, members of the NOMAD development team and FAIRmat domain experts met with Daniele Procida and Teodora Mihoc of Canonical for an interactive workshop on the Diátaxis framework for writing documentation.

The idea of Diàtaxis is to split documentation into distinct categories based on whether it should share practical or theoretical skills, and whether it should aid study or active work. After discussing this setup and how it fits with the needs of NOMAD users, the team got down to identifying how we can make the NOMAD documentation more effective and easy to use. Watch this space for developments in the very near future!

Hands-on team activities had everyone actively engaging with documentation, whether they joined us in Berlin or online.
