WRITING DOCUMENTATION FOR YOUR TEAM
Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter
To write effective documentation, carefully choose what to document, focusing on common questions, poorly understood concepts, and information crucial for informed decisions. Understand your audience's knowledge level, tailor your language, and structure the documentation for easy navigation. Write with the future in mind by explaining the "why" behind decisions, linking to current information, and encouraging a culture of shared documentation ownership.
