Contributing to Lamatic.ai Documentation

Documentation Contributors

Thanks to our amazing community contributors who help improve our documentation!

We’re thrilled that you’re interested in contributing to the Lamatic.ai documentation! Your efforts help improve the experience for all users of our platform. This guide will walk you through the process of contributing.

Documentation style guide

When writing or editing docs, follow these principles so the docs stay clear and consistent:

Second person, active voice. Write “Click Deploy” not “The Deploy button should be clicked.”
Outcome-first. Lead with what the reader can do or when to use a feature, not a list of capabilities. Example: “Use the JSON Agent when you need structured JSON from an LLM” rather than “The JSON Agent has customizable schemas and multi-model support.”
One idea per sentence. Avoid long chains of clauses; use full stops instead of em-dashes or commas when in doubt.
Use callouts for important notes. Use the <Callout type="warning" title="Title"> (or type="info", type="error") component for gotchas, tips, and prerequisites. Example: Save before you deploy — changes after the last save won’t appear in the deployed Flow.
Standardize placeholders. In code examples, use angle brackets for values the user must replace: <YOUR_API_KEY>, <PROJECT_ID>, <FLOW_ID>, <PROJECT_ENDPOINT>. Add a short “Prerequisites” or “Replace these values” line before the snippet.
Terminology. Use Flow and Node (capitalized) as the product terms. Avoid “workflow” when you mean Flow unless the UI uses it. Keep terms consistent with the Glossary.

Issue Types

When contributing or reporting issues, it’s helpful to categorize them. Here are the main types of issues you might encounter or want to report:

🐛 Bug: An error, flaw, or fault in the documentation that produces an incorrect or unexpected result. This could include broken links, incorrect information, or formatting issues.
🚀 Feature Request: A suggestion for a new addition to the documentation. This could be a request for documentation on a new feature of Lamatic.ai or a proposal for a new section in the existing docs.
📈 Improvement: A suggestion to enhance existing documentation. This could involve clarifying explanations, adding more examples, or restructuring content for better readability.
✏️ Typo: A small error in the text, such as a misspelling or grammatical mistake.

When creating an issue or pull request, please prefix your title with the appropriate issue type in square brackets or assign appropriate labels. For example:

[Bug] Broken link in Quick Start guide
[Feature Request] Add documentation for new API endpoint
[Improvement] Clarify explanation in Authentication section
