AI Project - Creating Close Info Bar Javascript
Project Type: Site Project Target Audience: All users of the Unqork Document Hub. Platform: Unqork — a SaaS no-code application platform for financial technology companies. AI Tool: Gemini Pro AI (https://gemini.google.com/) Example Link: View Example Link→
Situation
Unqork clients need to be kept informed about major changes to software releases or documentation. Their knowledge management platform, Doc360, offers Info Bars that display at the top of a page on the Document Hub. However, those bars can’t be closed, and take up space after the information has been ingested.
Task
As the resident lead technical writer, I was asked if I could create a way for readers to acknowledge an info bar, and temporarily remove it from view.
Action
- Research: Conferred with Gemini Pro AI on the best approach and compatibility with Doc360 software.
- Development: Generated JavaScript code that allows readers to close an info bar by clicking a button labeled “X”. Their decision is saved for up to 30 days, preventing excess information from displaying on the page. Whenever new info is posted, the bar reappears.
- Collaboration: Worked with the technical writer manager to ensure compatibility with Doc360.
- Implementation: Implemented the JavaScript in Doc360’s code section.
Result
- Documentation users can now hide info bars they no longer want to see.
- Improved document scannability.
- Simplified document structure.
💡 Key Takeaways
This project demonstrates proficiency with using AI to code robust features into an existing documentation platform.
