Write an article
Write a new article from an empty page or from a template. It stays a draft until you mark it ready and publish it.
- In the rail, select New Article.
- In New article, enter the Title, pick a Collection or choose New collection, and select Start writing.
- Under Template, pick a template, or start typing on the empty page.
Templates
A template gives the article a shape, with prompts for the words it needs. Docmunk marks the likeliest one Likely.
- Teach a task: the steps for a how-to.
- Fix a problem: an error, its causes, and the fix for each.
- Explain an idea: how something works, with no steps.
- Lay out the details: a table of options and what each does.
- Get someone started: the first steps to a first result.
- Like another article…: the shape of an article you pick.
With a template in place, select Draft it all to have Docmunk fill the prompts from your code, or Write it myself.
