Probably old hat to some…but documentation is important. Just for once…I am trying to keep documentation AHEAD of the inevitable bork that destroys everything… so that in 3 months time I don’t have to reconstitute everything out of thin air and swearing.
Anyhow, I came across this lovely little repo a while ago and though “yes, next time, use this”
https://github.com/Zavy86/WikiDocs
And so I am :)
