When writing documentation, people often do not know where to start. Also creating a structure is hard.

I like make things simple.

We created the DEVEN documentation skeleton, a boiler to create solid docs.

It's open source now.

Enjoy ❤️

@misprintedtype nice, we need more stuff like this!!
@heydon anything specific you'd like to see or are missing?
@misprintedtype Hmm. Some examples on what to write for each section of the docs? That may be in the project README already but honestly I was having trouble demarcating the project docs and the docs you might write via the project?
@heydon did you check the skeleton yet? :)

@misprintedtype Oh! All I could see was this file tree.

.
└── src/doc
└── README.md
└── ARCHITECTURE.md
└── CODEOFCONDUCT.md
└── CONTRIBUTE.md
└── DEPLOYMENT.md
└── GETSTARTED.md
└── GLOSSARY.md
└── PROJECTBACKGROUND.md
└── TESTING.md

Do I have to install the package to see a skeleton for each part?

@misprintedtype Ahhh. I found some now (https://github.com/deven-org/documentation-skeleton/blob/main/src/doc/ARCHITECTURE.md). I think it might help if the nodes in the file tree diagram were linked to these files in the src?
