DITA in a nutshell
Technical documentation is no longer tied to a specific software, editor, or platform. Thanks to standards such as DITA XML (Darwin Information Typing Architecture), you can develop modular content that you can also reuse, filter and publish to various channels and formats.
DITA is no stranger to technical writers and information architects, and has now come to be more widely recognised since the emergence of GenAI.
DITA is an OASIS open standard.
