A successful open-source community documentation initiative has:
- Comprehensive documentation provided on a central, official website.
- Inline comments and user feedback.
- The most common paths on the website are the most visible, intuitive paths.
- Fluent navigation and document hierarchies. (The URL matches the Breadcrumbs matches the content. If users get lost, users give up).
- Accurate and relevant official information, well vetted information.
