- Use cases- Document how developers can use your product in different situations.See Ask Your Developer for a really good take on how important use cases are to developers.
- Data- developers tend to be highly skeptical. Use empirical data and engage their "problem-solver" mind.
- Memes- levity has been highly effective for Woven. Humor helps with awareness and makes Developers less resistant to marketing Messages.
