How-To Documentation Skill
This skill provides patterns for writing effective How-To guides in documentation. How-To guides are task-oriented content for users who have a specific goal in mind.
Purpose & Audience
Target readers:
- Users with a specific goal they want to accomplish
- Assumes some familiarity with the product (not complete beginners)
- Looking for practical, actionable steps
- Want to get things done, not learn concepts
How-To guides are NOT:
- Tutorials (which teach through exploration)
- Explanations (which provide understanding)
- Reference docs (which describe the system)
