Writing Docs

Use one page for one topic.

Rules of thumb

  • Start with the reader's goal.
  • Put the most useful information first.
  • Show examples early.
  • Keep paragraphs short.
  • Prefer explicit names and concrete terms.

Good page shape

  • What this page covers.
  • The main workflow or concept.
  • One or two examples.
  • Edge cases or caveats.
  • Links to related pages.

Markdown-first documentation for teams that update docs often.
