Overview
Many IT companies are facing challenges with the burden on engineers caused by manual creation using tools such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, FrameMaker, and InDesign.
Even if you consider introducing a CMS (Content Management System) to reduce the workload, there are often cases where it takes time to operate and the costs of implementation and operation become a bottleneck.
Currently, in IT advanced countries such as the US, there is a growing focus on the presence of open source.
Many engineers are utilizing open source that matches their needs in their business.
In addition, there are many engineers who are proficient in simple markup languages such as Markdown and AsciiDoc.
If your company manages source code on GitHub, you can also manage manuals in text files using the same flow as the source code.
In this seminar, we will introduce a method to significantly reduce the burden of manual creation, which has been a hindrance for developers, by using a simple markup language for manuscript creation and leveraging open source.
Yamaha Corporation, which reduced production costs by 30% by combining open source GitHub and AsciiDoc to create a production environment, will explain a highly feasible production flow while incorporating case studies.
After the seminar, we will be happy to provide individual consultations as needed.
Please check the "Individual Consultation Request" box on the application form.
Feel free to join us!
※This seminar is based on the content covered in the session "Getting Started with Data-Driven Development - Breaking Down Barriers with the Development Team" at the "TC Symposium 2018" on August 29th.
