Principles
- Write for the reader — Who is reading this and what do they need?
- Start with the most useful information — Don't bury the lede
- Show, don't tell — Code examples, commands, screenshots
- Keep it current — Outdated docs are worse than no docs
- Link, don't duplicate — Reference other docs instead of copying
