Recording Venue:

Host(s): Markus
In this episode, our guest Andreas Rueping and Markus talk about documenting software. While this is a topic that many people don’t like or consider fun, it is nonetheless very important. Based on his book, Agile Documentation, we talk about various aspects documenting software such as what to document, when to document, which media to use as well as specifically a number of layouting tips for nice documents.
