For even more nostalgia you could go back pre Internet, the search for the right book on the thing you were trying to achieve. You had to go to a technical book store and physically scan the shelves, buy it and read it.

Devs really don't want to work with tech writers to document their code though

If we can also apply this to network engineers, that would be awesome. No more waiting 2 weeks for a firewall rule. But how many places actually have tech writers these days.. mostly devs will be asked to write documenation.

I heard of it but never used this to be honest. I know it was really popular before Entity framework became decent.

A bust after a boom happened during the dot com crash and also the GFC. When you look at the overvalued companies on the US stock exchange and the ridiculously high salaries being paid for many developers right now, there was always going to be a pull back at some point.

Which is a shame because the platform as a developer is awesome. I've developed for both iOS and Android and will always favour Android.

Nice read, thanks for this.
