<p>In August 2019, a offered their services to completely revamp the documentation for Mastodon, while also writing or rewriting significant portions of it. From the beginning, they developed an information architecture based on the various user personas that would be reading the documentation -- end users, administrators, contributors, client developers, and protocol implementers. a developed each persona into a section with its own narrative journey. Following this, they wrote out the missing parts of the documentation.</p>
<p>
a was contracted again in late 2022 to help update the content of the documentation for the monumentous v4.0 update of Mastodon.</p>
