SDK Documentation Redesign (InMarket)

Role: Product Lead

Year: 2022

🧩 Challenge

InMarket’s internal SDK documentation (docs.inmarket.com) hadn’t been updated in nearly a decade. Originally written by a founding engineer, the content had grown outdated, inconsistent, and developer-unfriendly. Repeated integration delays, recurring support tickets, and inconsistent onboarding highlighted the need for a full-scale overhaul.

🧠 Strategy

  • Audited the full documentation experience from a first-time developer perspective
  • Interviewed internal teams (Solutions, Product, CS) to identify friction patterns
  • Defined an improved information architecture to support clearer navigation and task-based flows
  • Selected Material for MkDocs as the new documentation platform to balance clarity, performance, and long-term scalability

⚙️ What I Built

  • Rewrote or restructured 70%+ of all existing content for clarity and accuracy
  • Introduced decision trees, best practice guides, and visual onboarding diagrams
  • Made critical technical sections more accessible without diluting developer requirements
  • Coordinated rollout with engineers, designers, and customer-facing teams

📈 Outcome

  • Estimated 40–50% reduction in integration-related support tickets within 60 days
  • Improved time-to-integration across multiple enterprise partners
  • Created a repeatable framework for future SDK updates and API documentation
  • New docs site became the internal benchmark for quality onboarding and developer experience

🛠 Tooling

  • Docs engine: MkDocs Material Theme
  • Hosted on internal domain (password protected)
  • Contributions tracked across Product, Solutions Engineering, and Tech Docs
