documentation

  1. Diataxis Framework - My favorite write-up about documentation.

    […] what we call documentation is fundamentally not one thing, but four. Understanding the implications of this, and how those four different things work, can help improve most documentation.

  2. Teach, Don't Tell - Steve Losh - For those who claim that source code, tests, or literate programming are sufficient documentation.
  3. Keep a Changelog
  4. Literate Programming in the Large - Tim Daly - I'm no longer a fan of literate programming, but this talk remains humorous, insightful, and inspirational for documentation in general.
