This devroom is for people who like to call themselves "documentarians": technical writers, software engineers, documentation architects, content writers, FOSS contributors and maintainers, translators, accessibility advocates, and activists for digital freedom and information access. Eleven sessions across a single morning, on the tooling, the writing, the translation work, the accessibility work, and the people who got into open source through prose rather than patches.
It is also one of the first in-person things Write the Docs India is doing since the chapter restarted, with more to come. If you write documentation in India and have been looking for others who do the same, this is a good place to find them.
Join us on Day 1, Room 1(on First Floor). Our schedule is:
Srihari Thyagarajan is a Technical Writer at Deepnote, co-organiser of SciPy India, an active participant in the PyCon India, IndiaFOSS, and FOSS United circles, and involved in early efforts to restart the Write the Docs India chapter. He recently ran a workshop on technical writing in the age of AI, and some of the thinking behind this devroom is visible in the slides.
Sujatha Mohan is a Lead Information Developer based in Bangalore, with over two decades of experience across software development, technical writing, instructional design, and support.
Agriya Khetarpal is a software engineer and FOSS maintainer working across the Scientific Python and Jupyter ecosystems, including projects such as Pyodide and JupyterLite, and is also a co-organiser of SciPy India. His interests lie in interactive documentation, web accessibility, docs-as-code tooling, static site generators, and more.
