Thanks for this ⭐! Writing was one of my biggest challenges at the beginning of my career as a software engineer. I’d spend so much time reworking emails or documentation to make them clear. With practice, though, it’s become one of my favorite skills.

Through writing, you improve your way of thinking. You put your thoughts in order. It's a great way to enhance your communication skills. Great article, Fernando! And thank you so much for the mention!

I treat writing like it like coding:

- Draft

- Refine

- Get feedback

It’s not just about being heard; it’s about being understood.

Thanks for the mention, Fernando!

Writing grows in importance the more you progress in your career. It's such an important skill to have no matter how many technical skills you possess.

Also, thanks for the mention Fernando!

Thank you, it's a great text. I can recommend [Vale](https://vale.sh/) and its [packages](https://vale.sh/hub/) to identify issues when writing a technical document.
