About this talk

Join us for a chat with Maurice Sharp, a developer documentation engineer, about the role of attention in creating compelling developer docs. You'll learn how to optimize writing to reduce cognitive load, discover why people listen, know what causes them to lose focus, and how borrowing lessons from screenwriting can help you improve the documentation experiences.  Come prepared to ask questions — and get answers — about designing helpful developer docs.
