What You'll Learn

Learn responsive web design (RWD) with HTML5, CSS3 & JavaScript in just 24 one-hour lessons

This book’s straightforward, step-by-step approach shows how to use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to build the responsive sites today’s users and clients want. In just a few hours, you’ll be building layouts, sites, forms, and web apps that automatically adapt to virtually any device. Every lesson builds on what you’ve already learned, giving you a rock-solid foundation for real-world success. 

Learn to integrate programming with good documentation. This book teaches you the craft of documentation for each step in the software development lifecycle, from understanding your users’ needs to publishing, measuring, and maintaining useful developer documentation.

Well-documented projects save time for both developers on the project and users of the software. Projects without adequate documentation suffer from poor developer productivity, project scalability, user adoption, and accessibility. In short: bad documentation kills projects.

What You'll Learn

•  Create friction logs and perform user research to understand your users’ frustrations
•  Research, draft, and write different kinds of documentation, including READMEs, API documentation, tutorials, conceptual content, and release notes
•  Publish and maintain documentation alongside regular code releases
•  Measure the success of the content you create through analytics and user feedback
•  Organize larger sets of documentation to help users find the right information at the right time

Who This Book Is For

Ideal for software developers who need to create documentation alongside code, or for technical writers, developer advocates, product managers, and other technical roles that create and contribute to documentation for their products and services.
