Documentation in some ways is more of an important output than code.

Documentation serves to to create beginners with the source code and project.

When working with devs it’s made clear that what they are delivering is documentation of which working code is one part.

The ability to write sentences in documentation is as important as writing code.

Writing as one works (not after) and then editing is one of the only ways I’ve found that there is a chance, waterfall, agile or cowboy.
