The future of documentation

If there’s one thing I hate while developing is having to search documentation for code samples that don’t really relate to what I’m trying to do.

Which is why I was blown away by the new LLM-based documentation system from Langchain.

Instead of having pages of documentation to read you just type in what you’re trying to do and the system produces a relevant bit of documention with sample code on the fly.

In my opinion this several orders of magnitude better than the existing way documention is done.

It’s also a decent, fairly low risk, first place to experiement implementing an LLM for your business. You can still keep your normal documents available on your site so users can still find them if the bot fails and the risk of implementing something wrong is likely to be low (it just won’t work).

If you have a documentation website and are interested in doing something like this I’d love to have a chat!
