API Documentation 3: Teaches technical writers how to write API overview material, tutorials, etc.


What you'll learn
Write API conceptual documentation, such as overviews, getting started sections, and tutorials.
Make calls to REST APIs using visual and command-line tools.
Find an open source project to document as a way of gaining experience.
Requirements
You should be familiar with APIs and how to document requests and responses (for web APIs) and classes and members (for platform APIs).
Google Chrome is required for one of the exercises.
Description
Course Description
This is the third in a series of courses for technical writers who want to learn how to write API documentation. The first two courses are called "Learn API Technical Writing: JSON and XML for Writers" and "Learn API Technical Writing: REST for Writers", and it's recommended that you first take those courses, unless you are very familiar with API documentation, and how to document reference material.
This course teaches how to write conceptual API documentation, such as overviews, getting started sections, and tutorials. For the most part, no programming experience is required, but technical writers with programming experience will still find it useful.
In addition to conceptual material, this course covers guidelines for good sample code, tools for making REST requests, and how to find an open source project to document as a way to get into the field of API writing.
What are APIs?
APIs (Application Program Interfaces) define how software systems talk to each other, and API documentation is a rapidly growing field. There is a strong need for writers who can understand APIs and explain them so that software developers can understand how to use them. API writers get to be in on the cutting edge of technology in high-paying positions.
What is Conceptual Material?
API documentation consists of reference material and conceptual material. Reference material describes the details of the API: what are the pieces of each request and response, or each class and member. Conceptual material orients developers so that it's easy for them to get started with a new API.
What is in This Course?
By the end of the course, you will understand how to write good API conceptual material, how to make REST calls using GUI and command-line tools, and how to find an open source project to document. In this course you'll find
8 videos that
Describe how to write good conceptual material
Provide guidelines for good sample code
Demonstrates how to use tools to make REST calls
Leads you through examples of how to find open source projects on the internet
2 hands-on exercises to lead you through making REST requests using tools
PowerPoint presentations as a resource for every video lecture
A PDF with resources for finding open source projects
The course takes approximately 1 hours and 30 minutes to complete, depending on how fast you are with the exercises.
Who this course is for
This course is designed for technical writers who have some understanding of how to write API reference material.
No programming knowledge is required.
Take the first two courses in the series if you need a stronger understanding of APIs.
This course does not cover how to document reference material (requests, responses, classes, members, etc.)
