tutorial documentation quadrant

Cooking analogy: teaching a kid to cook

Should be steps to complete an objective

How over what

Turns learners into users

Needs to be up to date!

Learn by doing

Focus on getting them started, not necessarily doing it the "optimal" way

It needs to fucking work

Have immediate results

Make it repeatable

Concrete steps, not abstract concepts

Only explain what's currently necessary
