FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about technical writing engagements.

Will you write code samples?

Always. I write the code first, run it, then document it. Untested snippets are how docs rot.

Mintlify, Docusaurus, or roll-your-own?

For most clients: Mintlify for speed, Docusaurus for full control. Rolling your own is rarely worth it.

Can you ghostwrite engineering blog posts?

Yes-usually under your engineers' bylines. Topic discovery, drafting, review, and publishing are all included.
