Google Season of Docs

SymPy is participating in Google Season of Docs.

Google Season of Docs is a program that connects technical writers with open source projects.

This year, we are looking for a technical writer who can help us to improve the organization of our documentation. The SymPy documentation at https://docs.sympy.org/ currently contains a lot of documentation, but it is organized poorly. This lack of organization, along with the sheer amount of documentation, can make it difficult for users to find the information they are looking for. We are looking for a technical writer who can develop and implement a new organization scheme for SymPy's documentation. We would suggest using the Diátaxis Framework (previously known as the Divio documentation system) as a starting point for the organization, although we are open to other organization ideas if you wish to suggest one.

Our Google Season of Docs 2021 Organization Application contains more details on the project.

Interested technical writers should reach out to us on our mailing list. You should also read the guide for technical writers on Google's website.

If you want to apply, please email [email protected] with a resume/CV, a writing sample, and a paragraph describing how you will implement the documentation organization project for SymPy.
