#### 💡 Tips for writing a good Lab

* Choose an easily understandable Title. \
  Example: \
  ❌Bad: Best coding practices\
  ✅Good: 10 coding practices in JavaScript to save memory
* &#x20;Share an image or an animation of the end result of what the Lab will teach.
* Create as many steps as needed. Add images/screenshots, use code snippets and any reference links if needed.&#x20;
* In each step, wherever needed, share examples of good and bad practices
* In the conclusion, mention more use cases of the technology you are teaching, give due credits if needed and also share some links to learn more from.
* All done, be as simple, precise and crisp in your language as possible.
