>If the document is technical, I would use those fields as is. The latest one were about a SQL Server backend, so I used those SQL Server related field type terminologies. If it is about code, than specific coding environment might do. You can still provide some explanations and examples so a non technical users would have an idea of what's in it.
It will be kind of a technical document but to be used by an end user. So maybe calling non-technical document would be more appropriate.
Thank you.
