Trello Board of Ideas about docs

[danielkhan]

Reviewing the Trello board and looking at actionable items for me I started to wonder if there is some kind of styleguide or a "getting started writing docs for nodejs" doc available.
I mean - if I want to start my first doc today how do I do that?

There's not really a formal style guide for docs, as far as I'm aware. It should be fine to just approximate the style of the markdown docs in https://github.com/nodejs/io.js/tree/master/doc/api. Structural aspects will likely vary from existing content, and I suspect we'll just gradually converge on a defined style over time.

I think it's best that people just start making PRs with some content and we can provide feedback as more comes in.

Hey – I'm the blocker on this for now – I'm going to try and get the style guide / values guide done as fast as I can so we have a solid ground for things. The mechanical part of the style guide will likely look a lot like the guide in the core repo, as @Qard notes, especially when it pertains to reference documentation.

The associated issue is #4.
