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Keep it current — Outdated docs are worse than no docs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
