Best Practices
- Always verify generated documentation matches actual code behavior through testing
- Keep documentation synchronized with code using CI/CD automation
- Include practical code examples that users can copy and adapt
Avoid
- Generating documentation without reviewing for accuracy
- Including sensitive information like API keys or internal URLs in public docs
- Creating documentation that cannot be verified or tested automatically
