Who can learn from this book?

People who are good at explaining topics often sit between and have experience in different disciplines and roles. A good tech writer often has engineering, support, design, product, and marketing exposure and can help bring insights between these teams. In short, no matter your experience or your journey to get that experience, if you are keen to help people understand, then technical writing is the place for you!

This book is mostly aimed at developers who want to learn how to explain their creations to the world better. However, anyone involved with a technical product can find something useful here. And for any of you reading who are already writing documentation, welcome! I think you will also find enough new information to make this book worthwhile reading, especially from Chapter 7, Handling Other Content Types for Comprehensive Documentation onwards.
