I've accumulated a lot of useful info as a front end developer over the years, and want to be able to share that with others. Unfortunately, teachi...

Excellent post - other ideas
It is your opinion, experience and perspective so does not have to follow what everyone says
The blog post does not have to be very long - can even be a way of keeping notes for your future self

I use writing as a way of giving back to the community for the time they have spent helping me
Researching a lot about the subject you are going to write could help you to discover ideas and also it leads you to write more unique and adequate content.
Definitely! That reminds me, I also like to include a list of related resources that I found helpful at the end of the post. That's another way for me to feel less pressure about covering every single thing, because readers can follow those links if they're interested in learning more.
It also helps to fill some knowledge gaps about the topic you didn't even knew you had

This was great, nice work! I've had trouble getting started as well and plan to use this in the future.
It's depend which level of audience, for example newbie.

That's a really good point. Listing prerequisites before the post would be a great way to point beginners in the right direction.
