Our R&D team work on future tech, pushing the limits of 3D graphics on mobile.

They asked me to help with docs for a new internal app that showcases some of the new tech they’ve been working on.

I slotted into the team and created guides that explained what the app did and how it works. I included screenshots and short videos in guides that explained how to do common tasks.

As a prototype app, the UI was a bit rough around the edges so docs were essential to surfacing the features. It contributed to a smooth launch, as we had docs on how to download and install.

As part of the process, I re-structured the release content space and created templates to speed up future releases.
