Think about your project’s features and use cases. Use these to choose your core
tasks. Each granular use case (enable x, configure y) should have a
corresponding tasks page or tasks page section. Users should be able to quickly
refer to your core tasks when they need to find out how to do one specific
thing, rather than having to look for the instructions in a bigger tutorial or
example. Think of your tasks pages as a cookbook with different procedures your
users can combine to create something more substantial.

You can give each task a page, or you can group related tasks together in a
page, such as tasks related to a particular feature. As well as grouping related
tasks in single pages, you can also group task pages in nested folders with an
index page as an overview, as seen in this example site. Or if you have a small
docset like the [Docsy User Guide](https://docsy.dev/docs/) with no Tutorials or
Concepts pages, consider adding your feature-specific pages at the top level of
your docs rather than in a Tasks section.

Each task should give the user

- The prerequisites for this task, if any (this can be specified at the top of a
  multi-task page if they're the same for all the page's tasks. "All these tasks
  assume that you understand....and that you have already....").
- What this task accomplishes.
- Instructions for the task. If it involves editing a file, running a command,
  or writing code, provide code-formatted example snippets to show the user what
  to do! If there are multiple steps, provide them as a numbered list.
- If appropriate, links to related concept, tutorial, or example pages.
