TWT Release Notes (Survey): Which Tools Are Used?

Tech Writer’s Tribe conducted a global survey to understand how the technical writers work on Release Notes. Participants from several countries shared their experiences, that are divided into multiple reports.

The statistical data is displayed in different sections of the Newsletter. For details about responses, links to Release Notes, tools used, and more, access and download the PDF file of the report from the REPORT tag of Tech Writer’s Tribe App.

For Release Notes, teams generally do not use an exclusive tool. For writing and publishing Release Notes, most of the teams use the same tool that is used for Product Documentation.
