Ed Marsh creates content and community

Hi, I'm Ed Marsh. I've created and managed concise, consistent, and accessible content for over three decades. I specialize in defining and uplifting documentation best practices, including content strategy and information architecture.

I built this site to show how my content and technical expertise can help your clients, developers, and stakeholders.

I updated and simplified my old WordPress site using the Eleventy static site generator. Here's how I can use the lessons learned to help you meet your content goals.

Writing this blog post wasn’t part of my plan.

Creating website templates using AI

The how: Building the site structure

I started my information architecture with my existing WordPress site architecture. Then I started to put all the content pieces together.

Asking AI to write documentation

I decided to see if AI was going to take my job.
