Creating Playbooks
My initial idea was to create a repository in GitHub to store our team's onboarding documentation for pricing. I initially created a playbook repository in GitHub soon after joining the pricing team, and started creating multiple playbooks for hiring, knowledge sharing, iOKRS and more.
Once word spread that Confluence was decommissioned, I needed to find a way to convert all of our Confluence space into our existing playbook github repository. Once exported from Confluence, I did the following:
- converted the .HTML files into .md format
- added them to the existing playbook
- built a website using mkdocs
End Result
Our data is now exported from Confluence, we have a way to search and find our existing information, and all of our documentation is now stored in one place.
Visit https://shorty/pricing to see the web site.
For a step-by-step guide as to how the site was created, please refer to the README in the playbook repository.
Looking Ahead
While mkdocs is a good first step, the build/compile time for the site is horrendously slow due to the number of files. I will be working on leveraging 11ty to migrate to a better static site content generator that will allow more flexibility in design and navigation than mkdocs. If you are reading this page, 11ty was used to generate and build this website.
