However, maintaining good documentation is hard for many reasons, one being that the time needed to document things is time you&rsquo;re <em>not</em> spending on the &ldquo;building / fixing / operating / assisting&rdquo; aspects of your work &ndash; this is especially painful when you have lots of other urgent or important work to do.</p> <p>Therefore, an important value of any documentation system is to make it <strong>as easy as possible</strong> for the would-be documenter to access, create, and edit content at any time. This includes enabling the documenter to express their ideas without requiring excessive authentication, cumbersome markup, or slow / complex UI interactions.</p>
