# Audience Landscape

Developer audience research and topic landscape analysis. This output feeds the narrative stage as foundational context for story arc and messaging decisions.

## Content Guide

Structure the landscape around developer understanding:

- **Developer segments** -- defined with skill levels, technology stacks, pain points, and content format preferences
- **Topic landscape** -- trending themes, underserved areas, and competitive content analysis
- **Content gaps** -- opportunities where the team's expertise fills a genuine need
- **Community presence** -- where each segment is active and receptive (forums, platforms, events)
- **Sources consulted** -- community data, analytics, conference programs, with retrieval dates
- **Open questions** -- what remains unvalidated or requires direct audience feedback

## Quality Signals

- Developer segments are evidence-based, not assumed from job titles alone
- Topic recommendations match audience needs and team credibility
- Content gaps are validated against existing competitive content
- Community mapping identifies specific platforms and forums, not generic categories
