Markdown is a universal doc format that is easy to write and easy to add to a version control system.
Open - Anyone can submit content, fix typos & update anything via pull requests
Version control - Roll back & see the history of any given post
No CMS lock in - We can easily port to any static site generator
It's just simple - No user accounts to manage, no CMS software to upgrade, no plugins to install.
The basics of markdown can be found & . Super easy!

Serverless.com is comprised of 3 separate repositories
https://github.com/serverless/blog
https://github.com/serverless/site
Why multiple repos?
We wanted documentation about the framework to live in the serverless github repo for easy access
We wanted our blog content to be easily portable to any static site generator separate from the implementation (site)
prebuild npm script pulls the content together & processes them for site build
A single repo is easier to manage but harder for people to find/edit/PR content.
