Today we added a new tip on

 Two central Use Cases for the projectdoc Toolbox

with the projectdoc Toolbox for Confluence.

This tip shows that using the projectdoc variants of the Page Properties Macro (providing metadata for a page) and Excerpt Macro (transcluding content for reuse) is very similar to using the original ones - but with a lot of new and interesting features!

What is projectdoc?

The projectdoc Toolbox is a collection of a large number of tools to help teams to create modular, agile documentation collaboratively and with fun. The toolbox is an add-on for Confluence and is available on the Atlassian Marketplace.

The tools in the projectdoc Toolbox consist basically of macros, doctypes, and a handful of conventions. The number of these tools is overwhelming, especially for new users.

One Tip at a Time

Learning a new tool is not easy because users need to get their tasks done. Learning a new tool takes time, time that is not available.

Learning by tips - one tip at a time

Users learn some interesting aspects of projectdoc by reading one tip at a time. The tips show aspects of projectdoc and link to resources to learn more about a specific top - just in case.
