I’ll be speaking at the meeting of the STC Silicon Valley Chapter in Santa Clara on Monday 25th August. Thanks to Tom Johnson for organising this get-together! I’m excited to meet the Silicon Valley writers.
The talk is titled, “API Technical Writing: What, Why, and How“. The meeting announcement has the details.
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:
August 25th, at 6pm for socialising. The talk starts at around 7pm.
Location:
IHOP Restaurant
4200 Great America Parkway
Santa Clara, CA 95054-1210
