Documenting SDKs and APIs All Day Workshop - NY Metro STC (NYC, NY, US)

“Help wanted: Technical Writer to document SDKs. Must have Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Master’s degree in Technical Communication, plus five year’s experience in a similar position…”
In their dreams! In the real world, there are a lot more SDKs that need documenting than technical writers with the ideal qualifications. Documenting SDKs isn’t easy, and it’s not for everyone. But it is a highly sought skill. It’s work that will earn you respect, both from other writers and from programmers. And it’s one of the best-paying gigs in our industry.
Sure, it’s a tough job, but somebody’s got to do it. Why not you?
What will this workshop give me?
This 1-day workshop focuses on how to organize and produce SDK documentation, no matter what programming language the API is written in. You’ll learn why companies bother with SDKs, what programmers want and why sample programs are so important.
Act fast, space is limited and we expect this workshop to be full.
