Why are we doing this?

Every engineer is also a writer.

This course teaches you the fundamentals of technical writing. Use the principles in this course to write compelling:

  • case studies for your portfolio
  • READMEs for your projects
  • documentation
  • tickets, issues, and bug reports
  • developer questions
  1. complete the linked work
  2. revise a piece of technical writing you have already completed using the principles you have just learned
  3. ask Chat GPT to compare your original writing and your revision and explain which is better

Maximum time in hours

2.5
