The documentation problem

Code documentation drifts out of sync fast

Every time code changes, documentation needs updating. But developers are busy shipping features, not maintaining internal documentation. The result? Outdated docs that mislead teams and slow down onboarding.

Time-consuming manual updates

Developers spend hours manually updating documentation after every code change. This repetitive work takes time away from building features.

Docs become outdated quickly

Without automatic sync, documentation falls behind. New team members reference old docs, leading to confusion and errors.

Knowledge silos form

When documentation isn't current, knowledge stays in developers' heads. Team collaboration suffers and onboarding takes longer.

How Repository Sync works
