Optimizing Product Documentation for Large and Small Devices

When we first launched the template for Product Books and Chapters (in 2016), and then improved search functionality, Our focus was on desktop-sized screens. Thousands of customers have benefited from the new functionality since. In fact, more than 20,000 visitors leverage the search feature every week.

Now, in response to user needs, we have…

Adapted the enhanced search functionality for smaller screen sizes, making it easier to search a book when on the go.

Added light shading to the search results panel to distinguish results from the rest of the page.

Ensured documents can expand to match the browser, for full-screen viewing on desktops and large monitors.

Made the Table of Contents persistent in the left column (where the screen is wide enough to show that information)

We hope you enjoy the updates.  Give it a try on one of our docs.
