Documentation

Documentation is the practice of recording processes, decisions, and outcomes so that knowledge does not get lost. It can take many forms, from written notes and sketches to code comments, flowcharts, or structured reports. Good documentation creates clarity for yourself and for others who work with your project. It helps you reflect on choices, communicate with teammates or stakeholders, and ensure that your work can be understood, reused, or improved in the future. Whether you are designing, coding, or researching, documentation turns individual work into shared knowledge that supports collaboration and long-term impact.
