This is an important clarification.

Checking out the homepage, Annie says her job is "content & documentation things", but also mentions CSS as a hobby, so I think it's a safe assumption this is the "non-professional hobby developer" niche which I think we'll see continue to grow.

It's a hard balance to get right. I've seen "install this tool" sort of tutorials which literally introduce the concept of opening a terminal and pressing Cmd+V and others which expect cron and Make knowledge as very basic table stakes. It's a wide variety!

I think if we're writing for an audience which will contain some amount of beginners or non-developers, it's maybe ~2min of effort to add a little collapsable (straight from Claude if you want) going into what exactly we mean by "cd into ~/.snarfus, creating it if it doesn't exist"

I donno. I remember being 13 trying to install Debian on my dad's old laptop. Any nuggets of knowledge helped.

Not really. With the wide availability of AI, you can dumb down almost any text to any any level you want.
