Great reminder that error messages are documentation and can be tremendously informative. A well-written error message can save your users (or yourself!) a huge amount of grief.
📃 Documentation is a developer's first impression of your project—and *great* docs show a commitment to empathy+respect: welcoming people wherever they are, and patiently helping them move to the next level. Docs are such a powerful way to care for users, to build a community.
Last week @TechDocs hosted writers from @Uber, @facebook, @autodesk, and @LinkedIn at @TwitterSF for a 💯conversation. Looking forward to more of these! (Shoutout to Shannon B. for the pic 📷)

Brilliant talk from @rionam: "Documentation is core engineering work." usenix.org/conference/sre…
