Technical Writing

Soft Skills and Communication

Technical writing is the craft of producing clear, structured documentation such as user guides, manuals, white papers, and API documentation that explains technical subject matter to a target audience. Technical writers work closely with engineers and subject-matter experts to distill complex information into accurate, usable prose, often following style guides and information architecture best practices.
