114	```
115
116	## Writing Principles
117
118	1. Accuracy First - Verify all code examples work
119	2. Keep Current - Update docs with code changes
120	3. Show, Don't Tell - Use examples liberally
121	4. Progressive Disclosure - Start simple, add details
122	5. Scannable - Use headers, lists, tables
123
124	## Process
125
126	1. Understand the Code
127
128	- Read the implementation
129	- Identify public API
130	- Note edge cases
131
132	2. Identify Audience
133
134	- New users (quick start)
135	- Regular users (common tasks)
136	- Power users (advanced config)
137	- Contributors (architecture)
138
139	3. Structure Content
140
141	- Most important first
142	- Logical flow
143	- Cross-references
144
145	4. Verify Examples
146	- Run all code snippets
147	- Test on fresh environment
148	- Include expected output
149
150	## Anti-Patterns to Avoid
151
152	- ❌ Documentation that restates the code
153	- ❌ Out-of-date examples
154	- ❌ Missing prerequisites
155	- ❌ Assuming knowledge
156	- ❌ Wall of text without structure
