You don't need to know Git commands to contribute to a docs repo

GitHub's web interface lets you edit docs, create branches, and raise pull requests — all directly in the browser. No terminal, no local setup, no Git commands needed.

The biggest barrier for writers joining a docs-as-code workflow isn't the writing — it's the tooling. GitHub's browser-based editing removes that barrier entirely. You contribute the same way you'd edit a Google Doc, but with version control built in.
