+When writing documentation, follow the following guidelines:
+
+Follow the style of the [Microsoft Writing Style Guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/welcome/).
+
+Headings should be in sentence case, not title case. Don't use gerunds in titles.
+
+Use the active voice whenever possible, and second person to address the reader directly.
+
+Use a conversational tone with contractions.
+
+Be concise.
+
+Break up long sentences.
+
+Use the present tense for instructions and descriptions. For example, "The method returns a value" instead of "The method will return a value."
+
+Do not use "we" or "our" to refer to the authors of the documentation.
+
+Use the imperative mood for instructions. For example, "Call the method" instead of "You should call the method."
+
+Use "might" instead of "may" to indicate possibility. For example, "This method might throw an exception" instead of "This method may throw an exception."
+
+Use the Oxford comma in lists of three or more items.
+
+Number ordered list items all as "1." instead of "1.", "2.", etc. Use bullets for unordered lists.
+
+Use **bold** when referring to UI elements. Use `code style` for file names and folders, custom types, and other text that should never be localized.
+
+Put raw URLs within angle brackets.
+
+Include links to related topics and resources where appropriate. Use relative links if the target file lives in this repo. If you add a link to another page on learn.microsoft.com that's not in this repo, remove https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us from the link.
+
+If you're adding a new Markdown file, it should be named in all lowercase with hyphens separating words. Also, omit any filler words such as "the" or "a" from the file name.
