Cherryleaf has launched a course for anyone wanting to understand the key concepts behind DITA (Darwin Information Typing Architecture). DITA is an open source XML-based framework for designing and delivering well-structured content efficiently and consistently in a single-sourcing environment. It provides a standard approach for creating task-oriented information and assembling topics into books or other outputs.
DITA provides an open source, OASIS standard for supporting topic-based authoring of well structured content. DITA comprises three primary information types (concepts, tasks, and reference) that provide a structure amenable to most technical information, and provides a way of customising it for your industry’s needs.
