How to write documentation that developers want to read

The creation of top-tier documentation requires a deep understanding of the audience, including their common experiences, challenges, and preferred programming languages. To write effective documentation, one must be both a strategist and an artist, combining technical knowledge with an understanding of the holistic product and its users' needs. This can be achieved by providing context, defining clear outcomes, becoming an expert on the product, creating strategic paths to information, avoiding repetition, treating docs as code, and making updates a team effort.
