I wonder if Spotify was right on the money with their Techdocs approach. It's all just Markdown files being rendered in another format, and the edit button is just sends you to a github or equivalent editing page. People want the idea of a platform... but do they need one?

Well, you could get similar results by just spinning up a copy of the Wikipedia software. Their formatting language even looks enough like markdown in practice (despite appearing earlier).
