Sep 1, 2025September 2025 NSO-developer/nso-gitbook: Delivered two major documentation initiatives that boost developer productivity and reduce support overhead. The Erlang econfd API documentation was enhanced with module-level descriptions, types, functions, improved navigation, usage examples, and UI polish (icon added; anchor fixes; generic type bug resolved). Documentation structure and link integrity improvements across NSO docs were achieved by reorganizing man pages, Python API references, updating links, and correcting broken references; manpage and Python files were moved to align with the new structure. Overall impact includes clearer API references, faster onboarding, fewer broken references, and improved cross-repo consistency. Demonstrated technologies/skills include Erlang API knowledge, technical documentation, reStructuredText/Docs tooling, link validation, and cross-repo collaboration.
