Summary

Twilio is launching a new documentation format called "Guides" aimed at providing digestible instructions for common tasks with its APIs. The new content is designed to be consumed quickly and efficiently, allowing developers to complete tasks faster. To support this new format, Twilio has also introduced a feature called CodeRail, which pulls the relevant code into a dedicated column on desktop displays, making it easier to access implementation details. The Guides are available in light and dark themes, with mobile responsiveness, and come with quick shortcuts to copy the code to your editor of choice. Twilio is seeking feedback from developers on this new format and invites them to share their thoughts on Twitter using the #docsweek hashtag.
