Agree, on the other hand it can also be a lot of work. Indeed when I write on a notebook, I can be inaccurate, write just couple of pointers, etc.
While writing on a blog, I need to tell a more complete story, define a structure about the thing I want to document.

Absolutely. Most cases it takes me a week to write on tutorial.

  • Write the demo
  • Draft the post
  • Redraft
  • Redraft
  • Redraft
  • Question myself whether it's really worth publishing
  • Re-creating the app by copy pasting the code from the post
  • Finding problems with it

It's hard work. But I like to believe all this is helping me somehow

(It's not that I've been doing this for a long time though)
