When you think about technical documentation, what comes to mind first? Clear instructions? Usability? Accuracy?

While all of these matter, Richard Rabil, Principal Technical Writer at Oracle, highlights something we often overlook - aesthetics.

In this episode of the Knowledge Base Ninjas Podcast, Richard dives deep into how visual quality and thoughtful design elevate documentation from being simply “functional” to being truly engaging and user-friendly. He explains the balance between functional and deep quality, emphasizing that well-crafted, visually thoughtful documentation enhances usability. Richard also discusses how Gen AI could impact documentation practices, highlighting the continued need for clear, readable, and human-centric content regardless of new technologies. His insights offer a refreshing glimpse into the creative and strategic choices in effective technical writing.
