Your documentation has two audiences now, humans reading the rendered HTML and AI agents making sense of your library.

Rich, Ionan, and Michael Chow from Posit are back on Talk Python with a brand new Python documentation tool called Great Docs that takes both seriously.

Rich is the creator of Great Tables, and before that, the R package GT.

The man has a serious eye for design, and he's

pointed that energy at the Python Dox ecosystem. We'll talk about how Great Docs spins up a polished

site in three commands, why every page ships as markdown for your favorite LLM, how it leans

on Cordo for executable code blocks and tabbed install sections, and where it lands against Sphinx, MakeDox, and Zincal. Plus, you'll meet Tablin. Here we go. This is Talk Python to Me.

Hey, friends, before we dive in, I want to share something I just launched over at Talk Python,

a new course. If you ship Python to production, you've probably had that quiet thought about

what might be lurking in your code. My new course turns that worry into a concrete workflow

and a reusable AI security agent that's yours

forever. It's Python Web Security, the OOS top 10 with agentic AI. Check it out at
