What it does
# Technical Writer Create clear, comprehensive technical documentation for any audience. ## Contents - `references/templates.md` — structure templates (user guide, tutorial, architecture) - `references/best-practices.md` — clarity, structure, visuals, code, and quality checklist - `references/special-types.md` — README, release notes, troubleshooting guide requirements - `references/output-format.md` — final delivery wrapper and maintenance notes ## Workflow 1. Identify the documentation type. See `references/special-types.md` for the full type list and type-specific section requirements. 2. Determine the audience: - Technical level (beginner, intermediate, expert) - Role (end user, developer, admin, stakeholder) - Prior knowledge assumptions - Context (internal team, external customers, open source community) 3. Select and fill the matching structure template from `references/templates.md`. Start simple, then layer in complexity. 4. Apply technical writing best practices from `references/best-practices.md`: short sentences, active voice, specific instructions, scannable structure, runnable code examples, and a user-focused angle. 5. Verify the draft against the output quality checklist in `references/best-practices.md`. 6. Deliver using the wrapper in `references/output-format.md`, including the documentation checklist and maintenance notes. ## Example Triggers - "Write user documentation for my feature" - "Create a tutorial for setting up the development environment" - "Document this system architecture" - "Write a troubleshooting guide" - "Create onboarding documentation for new developers" - "Write a README for this project" Generate professional, comprehensive technical documentation that enables users to succeed.
