Technical Writer

May 2017Apr 2019 · 1 yr 11 mos · Farmington, Utah Area

  • This is a community for collaborating on creating great technical guides and tutorials. Our collective aim is working together to educate the world while improving our knowledge at the same time. Think of this as a "Wikipedia" for technical guides and tutorials, or "Medium.com for developers" as another analogy.
  • This is a developer community for writing guides. This is a community for collaborating on creating great technical guides. Our collective aim is by working together, we can educate the world and improve our knowledge.
  • Problems we’re trying to solve
  • ☁️ Technical blog content is currently created on WordPress, which isn't great for developers (doesn't easily support code blocks, etc).
  • ☁️ Once a guide is created, it becomes stale and out of date. If the author doesn’t maintain their content, then it becomes less useful.
  • ☁️ There isn’t a strong way for developers to improve their content through peer review. Wordpress isn't great for that.
  • ☁️ Guides currently exist in silos. They live on individual blogs, and are fragmented and varying in quality. Those guides don't typically reach a wide audience since individual blogs have limited reach.
  • ☁️ Programming guides are largely in English and do not translate quickly/easily into other languages since code isn’t easily auto-translated. Other countries don’t have easy access to learning.
  • How we’re solving these problems together
  • ✒️ We use MarkDown (rather than WordPress), a simple file format. This is a really simple text-based file format that takes around 60 seconds to understand. It's really easy to make things bold, italics, code blocks, etc. Markdown is used in many places, such as Github README files. Even this file is a Markdown file. You can help us edit and improve it.
  • ✒️ The guides are stored in GitHub, which many developers use daily and love.
  • ✒️ Use your favorite text editor to create guides and check them in via Git. Or you can also edit guides using Github's UI. Way better than Wordpress.

  • When the top companies generally block the use of social networking websites such as Facebook, Twitter, Quora, etc. in the interest of the employer’s benefit of members not getting distracted by “wasting” time on such sites, why not we re-create the whole environment for improving productivity and social interactions among the employees of the institution?
  • There are a lot of benefits when this kind of system is implemented in the enterprises. The main thing about the platform is that it connects all the members of the organisation together through this platform. Generally, it is not possible for all the members to interact and know each other within a big enterprise. Through this platform, members can freely interact with the other members.
  • This platform is also an ideation platform, where other members can post ideas, and challenges, to drive their minds, tease their brains, to challenge any issues in the organisation or the institute. The experts in the platform can contribute to the ideas, questions, and challenges, thereby improving or finding a suitable solution to the problem posed.
  • This platform provides a lot of networking capabilities, where the members can help the higher management by providing ideas and solutions, directly without going through the traditional hierarchy. This way, the higher management is more connected with the lower ones, which is an issue in most of the enterprises and institutes or those who provide the change.
  • The gamification feature of this platform rewards or awards the members with reputation points for every sensible activity, which would be a driving factor for the members and reports the quality of the contents in the platform based on a variety of dimensions such as popularity of the content, frequency of the member’s contributions, speed of the member in responding to other members queries.
  • This is a fully functional, industrially useful web application software and is ready to be used in production in the enterprises.

  • Many students, during the course of their education, have doubts and apprehensions about their career. These doubts range from the choice of a proper career path to the way they should behave in a corporate environment. Doubts like these can only be clarified by having an identification of their own interests, followed by a glimpse of how their interests are transformed into a career path inside the corporate.
  • People at TCS, after a careful analysis of the existing trends, have observed that the queries of many students are still going unanswered. Though we conduct a number of workshops and interactive sessions across the globe, the scale of the events and the large number of students participating therein make it difficult for us to handle the queries of every single student. We also felt a need to improve the soft skills of students so that they can find the transition into the corporate smooth and seamless. In order to ensure that these gaps are filled, we have come up with a platform called Campus Commune.
  • Campus Commune helps the students:
  • Clear doubts regarding their career
  • Connect with experts to get an idea of how their interests can be molded to fit into the corporate environment
  • Collaborate with peers on a diverse range of issues by means of different activity centers.
  • What’s more, we at TCS also host a slew of contests and challenges with exciting prizes to identify talent and nurture it to make the portal more and more competitive.
