# Documentation practices

The documentation is written following the Diátaxis principles.

## Voice of the documentation

Tutorials and How-to guides refer to the user as “you”: the documentation tell the user how to do something on their own. For example “You can use Debian trixie to install…”.

For explanations and reference use impersonal and passive forms. For example “Debian trixie can be used…”, “Execution of the command results in…”, `”The command outputs…” or “Output is produced by the command”.
