"Doctave has proven to be an ideal solution for our public API documentation"
Upvest had always pursued a documentation-as-code strategy, using an open-source static site generator, but we faced a challenge building a Git-driven system that could manage access to content for multiple API versions and audiences.
Doctave provides us that flexibility out-of-the-box whilst allowing us to maintain absolute control of our OpenAPI spec and documentation development processes.“
Geoffrey Teale
Head of Developer eXperience at Upvest
"Doctave makes our developers happy"
For SSH, publishing the product and API documentation from our code repository seamlessly integrates to our ways of working. Having the ability to easily tie the documentation updates to our existing CI/CD pipeline and release process simplifies the steps and ensures that the documentation is always up-to-date.
To us, Doctave is bringing the product documentation writing and publishing experience to its next evolutionary step.“
