Description

Creating Intelligent Content with Lightweight DITA documents the evolution of the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA), a widely used open standard for structuring technical content. This book introduces Lightweight DITA, a proposed version that simplifies its authoring experience and reduces dependence on complex XML structures.

The author argues that by combining principles of rhetorical problem solving with computational thinking, technical communicators can create structured content in lightweight workflows using XML, HTML5, and Markdown. The book aims to make concepts of structured authoring and intelligent content more accessible to humanities-based writing and communication programs.

Intended for practitioners and students interested in structured authoring or the DITA standard, this book reconciles industry and academic methods for authoring content and reports on DITA's evolution through a computational thinking lens.
