I like confluence as a _temporary_ discussion space. Put up some mockups, put up some sequence diagrams, suggest external components and get feedback. It doesn't entirely eliminate design meetings, but it can serve as a overview so people have already thought about the design before a zoom meeting on it. A virtual whiteboard maybe. The other think I like it for is lists of 'learning' links Our team has a nice page with suggested books or lectures or tutorials that they think others will find useful. Everything else is stale within a week or so. If I need to document something it goes into a Readme which can also go stale but is still a bit more in your face. I've also seen what someone points out below - the engineers who think Confluence documentation counts as task completion. > "Did you figure out how to do X?" > "Yes, here is a confluence page." > "Did you install it? Did you run it? Did you validate the results?" > "... here is a confluence page"
