A small zine prepared in occasion of the second Documentation session, hosted at Varia, Rotterdam on March 23rd.

The fear of the blank readme file is a great challenge to overcome when writing docs. The pubblication takes into account several departing points from where to start documenting code.

Find the zine online on the Soupboat, a self-hosted server mantained within the context of the Experimental Pubblishing master of the Piet Zwart Institute, Rotterdam.

Download it here, in a print-friendly web-to-print booklet:
