Writing Tips

  • Be representative, not exhaustive. Give readers specific examples, guiding principles, and a sense of what is possible. Don't feel the need to mention every function and property; that's what the reference documentation is for.
  • Be concise, direct, and friendly.
  • Tutorials are more informal and less comprehensive than in-depth guides.
