Documentation is an important part of Fabricademy. You should document your work for your own, and for anybody who would like to replicate your work.

You don't need to repeat what has been explained during class, but document any issues and solutions you have found during your assignment.

Make sure your documentation shows what you did as this is the primary reference for evaluating your work.

You can use this wiki as your documentation notebook. The wiki uses the DokuWiki software, check out the manual for more details.
