Diataxis: User-first approach to documentation

I will be conducting a workshop on applying Diataxis to get documentation done. Diataxis is the user-first documentation approach popularly used in open source world and when creating developer documentation.

I will also use part of the workshop to introduce the Open Documentation Academy hosted by technical authors working at Canonical and how it guides first timers in the open source world to make their first contributions using documentation as a channel.

• What is Diataxis and how to use it to craft documentation?

• Thinking about user needs when creating product documentation

• Making your first contribution in open source through documentation
