As a programmer, when I write documentation I try to make this work profitable for me. First, I open the specifications I had and I try to describe how it was implemented. Often, this means I have to give a look to my code or tests and this makes me identify a bug or a missing test. I try to be concise and to avoid repetitions because big documentations are more expensive to maintain. At the end, I try to imagine the future me who will have completely forgotten this project and will be asked questions by users who will start using it. When I finish a project, I free my mind of all the details.
