How to Write API Documentation - A Complete Beginner's Guide (2nd Expanded Edition)

An Application Programming Interface (API) is like a virtual bridge that allows different types of software to communicate with each other. It is a set of rules that two applications use to talk to each other.

Think of it as a remote control that can be used to control different types of software from another piece of software.

For example, an API may allow your website to automatically post pictures to your Facebook page. It simplifies the process of connecting two pieces of software, and makes it much easier for developers to create applications that are more powerful and useful. 

This eBook (2nd Expanded Edition) will teach you what API exactly is and how to write an API guide which you'll very likely be asked to write if you are working as a technical writer for a software company.

Those technical writers who know how to write an API guide have a distinct advantage over those who don't.
