At PyTennessee this year Katie Cunningham gave her “How to learn to love writing” keynote. Documentation is an important part of engineering and development we sometimes take for granted and so inspired by Katie’s talk I wanted to sum up some important things she said, which I think might be helpful for all of us who struggle with writing documentation.
Inspired by Linux distributions like Ubuntu, James Tauberproposed a different approach to releasing Pinax apps and starter projects. As a result of James’s proposal we announced Pinax 16.04 last month and explained as well the benefits of the approach as the rough plan we were going to follow.
