Docs in Practice: Behind the State of Docs
About the event
This month, we're joined by [GitBook](https://www.gitbook.com/), one of the most widely used and recognised platforms for publishing documentation. Join us for an evening with [Addison Schultz](https://www.linkedin.com/in/addisonschultz/) (Developer Relations Lead), [Tal Gluck](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tal-gluck-32464131/) (Developer Advocate), and Stephen Ashby (Content Marketing Lead) for an exclusive behind-the-scenes at how they do documentation themselves.
In the first half, they’ll take us inside the tooling and workflows from [docs.gitbook.com](http://docs.gitbook.com). Then, they’ll take us through the widely distributed [State of Docs Report](https://www.gitbook.com/blog/state-of-docs-2026): How they ran the global survey, the industry trends it revealed, and where they believe documentation is headed.
