Jul 1, 2026In July 2026, the repository railwayapp/docs received targeted CLI documentation updates tied to the Railway CLI feature set. I added coverage for autoupdate, private-network, and tcp-proxy; expanded domain management and service source configuration docs; and refreshed the docs sidebar navigation to surface these new references. These changes align with the product roadmap and improve discoverability for developers adopting new CLI features. The commit dbdfcae43bb417b389b6b23722b9946bb34d32cc documents missing CLI command references (#1228).

Feb 1, 2026In February 2026, I delivered a comprehensive refresh of Railway's Documentation Website (railwayapp/docs) including a new information architecture, branding update, and contributor onboarding improvements. The project introduced an accordion-style navigation, restructured sections under slug-based paths, and created dedicated landing pages for Platform and Pricing, improving content discoverability and onboarding for contributors and users. I modernized the content stack and UI, migrating to Content Collections and Tailwind v4, building a reusable UI component library, and enhancing search, code highlighting, and accessibility. Extensive cleanup fixed broken internal links and redirects, removed deprecated content, and strengthened SEO and navigation reliability. These changes reduce onboarding time, improve developer experience, and scale documentation to support growth.
