- Evaluation: quickstart guide, sample apps, sandbox environment
- Activation: great docs, helpful error messages, examples
- Engagement: community forums, Discord/Slack, office hours
- Advocacy: showcase program, testimonials, speaker program

Technical Blog Post Formula
Structure
- Hook: specific problem or scenario developer faces (first 50 words)
- What you'll build: one sentence + screenshot of final result
- Prerequisites: exact versions, accounts needed, setup time
- Build section: step-by-step with code blocks, each with expected output
- Explanation: why it works (not just how)
- Next steps: 3 things to try or build on top of this
Quality Bar
- Every code block: complete, runnable, copy-pasteable
- No 'just' or 'simply' (implies it should be obvious)
- All technical terms linked to glossary or docs
- GitHub repo link with working code for the entire tutorial
