Checklist
Structured step lists for multi-part tasks, built to be worked through in order and ticked off one point at a time as work gets done.
A checklist breaks a task down into separate, clearly defined points that can be worked through one after another. Rather than explaining a process in detail, the format focuses on the individual steps themselves, kept short and in the right order.
How this genre is built
Each point represents a single action or condition that needs to be met, often with a brief note on what to watch for. The order of points usually follows the actual sequence of the task, so the list can be used alongside the work itself rather than read beforehand.
This genre fits recurring tasks with several parts, where a single missed step can cause problems later, such as preparation, setup, or a final check before something goes live.
