…ice and add specificity
* added "messages" inside the bold after "the" was no longer breaking up an active phrase * Multiple "you" + verb instances in paragraph form required reworking to make active * I tried to get from active to passive with the minimum amount of edits and no change in the information being presented
* removed weak words would/should
* removed "should" * updated list layout
* removed "you want", "you can"s * Added context and formatting to the example * added example for `init/0` @doc
* removing some passive voice and weak words like "should" * minor rewrite for different word choice/sentence structure. *white space changes Note: If we don't like the formatting of the `c:prepare_for_start/2` parameters, here are the edits in paragraph form: The `module` parameter represents the Broadway module passed as the first argument to `Broadway.start_link/2`. The `options` parameter contains all the Broadway topology options passed as the second argument to `Broadway.start_link/2`.
* "in order to" * "simply" * "we need to"/"we can" * "you need to" * "blank of blanks" * "you should" * "never stops" (weakly double negative) * Change "you can blank" to "blank"
