LT Abi Sutherland
summary
Slide deck starts as a joke and becomes a method: document the current system not the imagined five‑option future or the obsolete system past. Claim: write only about what users can access, reuse existing templates and examples, and stop reinventing wheels. Practice: teach developers the documentation basics, use peer feedback and subject‑matter experts, audit accessibility needs so the tiny Tims thrive, and build and join community channels for real troubleshooting and ongoing review. Ghost of system past stays in the past.
