Lessons learned while working as a technical writer at FluxML

Working as a technical writer at FluxML for the past six months has taught me some tips and tricks for writing and maintaining user-centric documentation. Documentation not only requires writing clear and concise content but also building infrastructures, testing, and a lot of discussions. This talk takes all the lessons I learned (myself and through FluxML maintainers) in the past six months and condenses it into 3 minutes!

This short talk will explain why working on documentation is not just writing content. We will walk through design ideas, implementations, user feedback, as well as failures. We will discuss how to write clear and maintainable documentation for users and how to make the documentation development process seamless for developers. As a final goal, this talk aims to enhance a user's journey through reading documentation and a developer's journey through developing documentation.
