      Well this depends on how long your article is and how much text you have to write. A lot of useful info you will find in the Submission Guidelines[^] Some important steps from my point of view: - prepare your code (clean and format it) - check your code for 3rd party sources which I always list in credits/references - make a plan about the possible contents of the article and how many chapters it should have - make some pictures (which can say more than thousand words) - start writing chapter after chapter - use the preview feature and check the output for errors, typos and formatting issues - upload your code and include it to the article - add the most important code parts to the related chapters - preview and check it again - loop until all chapters are ready If the source code of your project is already finished, then I would say for an article which takes 8 or 10 minutes to read, the "producing of the article" may take between 2 and 4 days in total.
