About Me
Technical writer focused on enhancing product value through clear, actionable documentation that drives user action and understanding.
My approach is hands-on, actively working with the product, as demonstrated by the screenshots and practical examples featured in my recent work. I translate complex tech into clear narratives that empower users and drive sales. I am here to make your product's brilliance shine by visually demonstrating its use with practical examples, rather than simply describing it.
I have a good understanding of the Docs as Code workflow, including writing documentation in Visual Studio Code, managing version control with Git, hosting on GitHub, and publishing using a static site generator.
For API documentation, I can demonstrate how Swagger automates the generation of accurate, up-to-date documentation directly from FastAPI or Flask-RESTx API code, enhancing developer collaboration and ensuring documentation is closely integrated with the codebase.
Looking for a remote work opportunity in India or an in-office role in Hyderabad, India. Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn or reach out to me through email at techwriterdinesh@protonmail.com.
