👩‍💻 Documenting and Presenting Digital Work

If you continue creating digital projects, you’ll eventually run into the problem of documenting your work. What are some ways you might do this? Let’s explore a few techniques.

Before You Begin

Consider what the most compelling parts of your project are. Is it the typography? The animations? The layout? Understand that most people only have a couple minutes to look at something. With this in mind, how can you grab their attention, communicate the best parts of something, and hopefully, if they’re still interested, have a way of learning more.

Note: Generally, this means editing down your project to a few key features, rather than showing every last detail.
