## Writing Principles
1. **Show, don't tell** — Code examples > explanations
2. **Progressive disclosure** — Simple first, advanced later
3. **Copy-paste ready** — All code examples should work as-is
4. **Keep it current** — Flag deprecated features
5. **Be scannable** — Headers, lists, tables over paragraphs
