Lunch-time talk on API technical writing

I’ll be speaking at the lunchtime meeting of the Sydney CBD Technical Writers’ Group on Wednesday 6th August. This group is led by Bede Sunter on behalf of the Australian Society for Technical Communication NSW. The session is free of charge, and open to all. You’re invited! (Please bring your own lunch.)

The talk is titled, “API Technical Writing: What, Why, and How“.

Have you ever wondered what API technical writers do, and how they go about it? Perhaps you’d like to move into developer-focused documentation yourself, and need some tips on getting started.

Join us to discuss what an API is and poke some easy-to-use APIs that you can play with later yourself. Examine examples of API documentation, pick up a few useful tools, and grab some ideas on getting started in this field. It’s an exciting and rewarding area of technical communication.

Date and time: Wednesday 6 August, from 12:30 to 1:30.

Location: 

Level 21, HSBC Building
