## Best Practices

1. **Start with the reader** - What problem do they have?
2. **Show, don't tell** - Use code examples
3. **One idea per section** - Keep it focused
4. **Use concrete examples** - Abstract concepts need grounding
5. **Include working code** - Test everything
6. **End with action** - Tell readers what to do next
7. **Get feedback** - Have someone else read it
8. **Revise ruthlessly** - First drafts are just the start
